Tasha Griggs v. Bounce N' Around Inflatables, L.L.C. and…

Summary

The court held that a minor who was illegally hired and injured while performing a task prohibited by child-labor law is subject to the exclusive-remedy provisions of the workers' compensation law. Because the statute covers "every person" and contains no exception for illegally employed minors, the court declined to create a tort remedy and affirmed the court of appeal's dismissal of the tort claims.
