1Opinion of the Court
Barnes, Judge.
Annie Laura Glover, the mother and administrator of the estate of Willie Fred Glover, sued Charles Ware, a landscaper, and his business entity, Old BW Landscaping, Inc., for wrongful death after Willie Glover fell off the back of a flatbed truck and was crushed by a mulching machine being towed behind the truck. The trial court granted the defendants’ motion for summary judgment based on the exclusive remedy provision of the Workers’ Compensation Act, OCGA § 34-9-11 (a). Annie Glover appeals, and for the reasons that follow, we reverse the trial court’s grant of summary judgment.
