Scarbrow v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance

Sharlet S. Scarbrow (Scarbrow) filed suit against State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company (State Farm) after State Farm refused to pay medical expenses incurred by Scarbrow as a result of a work-related automobile accident. The circuit court held that a provision in State Farm’s automobile insurance policy excluding coverage for medical expenses that are payable under a workers’ compensation statute is valid and enforceable. Because we have previously held that such an exclusion does not conflict with Code § 38.2-2201, we will affirm the judgment of the circuit court.
