563 S.E.2d 745 (2002)

264 Va. 165

Louise V. BURCH v. HECHINGER COMPANY.

Supreme Court of Virginia.

June 7, 2002.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Steven W. Bancroft (Michael J. Carita, Fairfax; Kenneth Falkenstein, Arlington; Phillip Sasser, Jr., Spotsylvania; Trichilo, Bancroft, McGavin, Horvath & Judkins, Fairfax; Jarrell, Hicks & Sasser, Spotsylvania, on brief), for appellant.

Christopher E. Hassell (Lucy C. Chiu, Washington, DC; Bonner, Kiernan, Trebach & Crociata, on brief), for appellee.

Present: All the Justices.

Opinion By Justice CYNTHIA D. KINSER.

In this personal injury action, the question on appeal is whether the plaintiff-appellant was a statutory employee of the defendant-appellee when she was injured. Because we answer that question affirmatively, we will affirm the circuit court's judgment sustaining the defendant's plea in bar based on the exclusivity provision of the Virginia Workers' Compensation Act, Code § 65.2-307(A).
