ON PETITION TO TRANSFER
SULLIVAN, Justice.
In several recent cases we have rejected plaintiffs' attempts to "pieree the corporate veil" in claiming contract and tort liability against a corporation's owner or parent. Aronson v. Price (1994), Ind., 644 N.E.2d 864; Winkler v. V.G. Reed & Sons, Inc. (1994), Ind., 638 N.E.2d 1228. Similarly, in this case, we reject defendant's attempt to disregard the corporate form in claiming the protection of the exclusivity provision of the Indiana Workers' Compensation Act for an employer's parent. 1
