  1. Burson v. City of Tulsa

    486 P.3d 17 (Okla. Civ. App. 2020)

    ANALYSIS ¶5 Burson asserts that the statutory provision providing for the payment of full wages to municipal police officers during temporary disability due to work-related injury, 11 O.S. 2011 § 50-116.1, is fundamentally at odds with the AWCA provision allowing reimbursement of advance payment of wages by an employer during a temporary disability period in the event of a permanent disability award, 85A O.S. Supp. 2013 § 89. ¶6 We firstly acknowledge this case's similarities to a recent Oklahoma Supreme Court case, Braitsch v. City of Tulsa , 2018 OK 100, 436 P.3d 14. In Braitsch , a claimant was injured while on the job and was paid her full salary in lieu of TTD payments, pursuant to the terms of her collective bargaining agreement.

    Holding that Workers' Compensation Commission finding that injury resulted from a work-related accident precluded subsequently filed district court action based on alleged intentional tort not covered by workers' compensation act

    Weber v. Armco, Inc. , 1983 OK 53, 663 P.2d 1221, 1225 (The dual-capacity doctrine applied to former workers' compensation statutes stated an employer who was generally immune from tort liability might become liable to its employee as a third-party tortfeasor; if the employer possessed, in addition to its capacity as an employer, a second capacity that conferred upon the employer legal obligations independent of those imposed upon the employer as an employer.).Odom v. Penske Truck Leasing Co. , 2018 OK 23, ¶ 14, 415 P.3d 521, 527 ("The plain language of 85A O.S.Supp.2013 § 5 unambiguously abrogates the dual-capacity doctrine with regard to employers as defined by the AWCA."); Braitsch v.

As explained herein our opinions have historically held a workers' compensation order awarding a benefit for an injury acts to preclude or bar a subsequent District Court tort action for the same injury.

    ¶ 4 Oklahoma's Constitution doesn't prohibit all local and special laws, only those which concern certain enumerated subjects. Braitsch v. City of Tulsa , 2018 OK 100, ¶ 9, 436 P.3d 14, 20 ; Okla. Const. art. 5, § 46.

  9. Anatolia Rest. v. Burton

    509 P.3d 72 (Okla. Civ. App. 2022)

    The applicable analysis is sometimes described as "requir[ing] an adjudication of whether the legislation is rationally related to a legitimate government interest and if the challenged legislation reasonably advances that interest." Braitsch v. City of Tulsa , 2018 OK 100, ¶ 7, 436 P.3d 14 (citation omitted). ¶28 In an effort to demonstrate a substantive due process violation, Employer asserts that a lack of a more specific finding regarding the nature and extent of the injury, either in the present case or, presumably, in any case before the Commission involving a compensable injury, prevents Employer from "be[ing] able to assert a valid § 50(A) defense to ... recommended medical treatment."
