Medders v. U.S. Fidelity and Guar. Co.

I

Involved in the dispute presently before the Court is whether the exclusivity of our worker's compensation statutory scheme bars recovery under an employer's uninsured motorist coverage (UM) where the uninsured motorist is uninsured only because he is a fellow employee acting in the course and scope of his employment. Resolution of that question requires us to interpret the words "legally entitled to recover" as used in the statute defining those claims for which uninsured motorist insurance is compelled. The trial court issued an order granting summary judgment denying coverage. We affirm.
