Richard GALLON v. VAUGHAN CONTRACTORS, INC.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Fourth Circuit.

May 27, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Stanga & Mustian, William R. Mustian, III, Metairie, for plaintiff-appellant Richard Gallon.

Bienvenu, Foster, Ryan & O'Bannon, Robert N. Ryan, J. Edward Thompson, New Orleans, for defendant-appellee Vaughan Contractors, Inc.

Before KLEES, BYRNES and WALTZER, JJ.


KLEES, Judge.

Plaintiff, Richard Gallon, appeals the dismissal of his lawsuit which was based upon the intentional tort exception to the Louisiana Worker's Compensation Act. The sole issue on appeal is whether plaintiff's injuries resulted from an intentional act under the exception to the exclusivity provision of the Worker's Compensation Act. After reviewing the record and applicable law, we affirm the district court's dismissal.1
