: Florida Workers’ Compensation Law BlogSupreme Court Denies Review in Liberty Mutual v. Steadman
By David A. McCranie, Esq.
In Liberty Mutual Insurance Company v. Steadman, a case which I originally discussed here, the Second District Court of Appeal held that the allegations of Steadman's complaint, if true, would be sufficient to sustain an award of damages for intentional infliction of emotional distress by Liberty Mutual and its claims adjuster. Previously, in Aguilera v. Inservices, Inc., the Florida Supreme Court had held that such claims are not barred by the "exclusive remedy" provision of §440.11, Fla. Stat.
Liberty Mutual had sought review of the Second District's decision in the Florida Supreme Court. But in this 3/26/2008 order, the supreme court has now declined review. Therefore, the case will now be returned to the circuit court for trial for further proceedings.
