OPINION
NAJAM, Judge
STATEMENT OF THE CASE
Sandra Waldridge appeals from an order of the Worker’s Compensation Board of Indiana (the “Board”) dismissing her claim for worker’s compensation benefits from her former employer, Futurex Industries, Inc. (“Futurex”). Waldridge raises one issue on appeal which we restate as whether the legislature intended for the Indiana Comparative Fault Act, 1 which abrogated the common law release rule, to repeal the “release rule” provision in the Indiana Worker’s Compensation Act by implication. 2
We affirm.
