Description
Appellant Susan McKennan, personal representative of the estate of Terry Don McKennan (McKennan), brought suit alleging that Terry McKennans employment with appellee Wyoming Sawmills, Inc., was unlawful in that he was required to work under circumstances that violated the Wyoming Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA), W.S. 27-11-101 et seq. (June 1987 Repl.) and that, because his employment was unlawful, the exclusive remedy provided by the Wyoming Workers Compensation Act, W.S. 27-14-101 et seq. (1987 Repl. and 1990 Supp.) was not applicable to their claims. In addition, McKennan asserted that Wyomings wrongful death statute creates a class of claimants who are not precluded from seeking damages for wrongful death by the workers compensation laws. The district court dismissed the complaint, finding that it was barred by Wyo.Const. art. 10, § 4, and W.S. 27-14-104. Page 1304
