Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Offices of Raleigh Newman, Donald McKnight, Lake Charles, for plaintiff-appellant.

Raggio, Cappel, Chozen & Berniard, L. Paul Foreman, Lake Charles, for defendants-appellees.

Before GUIDRY, LABORDE and YELVERTON, JJ.


GUIDRY, Judge.

Plaintiff appeals the trial court's judgment sustaining defendants' exception of no cause of action and dismissing plaintiff's suit.

The only issue presented on appeal concerns whether plaintiff's petition states a cause of action in intentional tort against defendants, thereby avoiding the exclusive remedy of the Louisiana Worker's Compensation Act. La.R.S. 23:1032.1
