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.
