General Motors Acceptance Corporation v. David
632 So.2d 123 (1st DCA 1994)
An employer who properly secures workers' compensation
coverage for its employees is immune from suits so long
as the employer has not engaged in an intentional act
designed to result in injury or death or conduct which
is substantially certain to result in injury or death
to an employee. This standard requires more than a
strong probability of injury. It requires a virtual
certainty. In this case, insufficient facts were
alleged in the Complaint to warrant the exclusion of
the workers' compensation immunity provisions.
