Appeal from the Reported below: 272 Mich App 27.
Summary Dispositions December 29, 2006.
Pursuant to MCR 7.302(G)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we reverse the judgment of the Court of Appeals and we remand this case to the Court of Appeals to address the intervening plaintiffs remaining arguments. The Court of Appeals erred by adopting the "traveling employee" doctrine under the circumstances of this case. Here, the employee was traveling from his worksite to his home for the time being at the time of his injury. The general rule, that injuries sustained by an employee while going to or coming from work are not compensable, is applicable even when an employee's residence is temporary because of a particular job assignment. Graham v Somerville Construction Co, 336 Mich 359 (1953).
