STATUTORY INDEXING:
Exclusion for Parked Vehicles Covered by Workers Comp [§3106(2)]
TOPICAL INDEXING:
Not Applicable
CASE SUMMARY:
In this unanimous per curiam Opinion, the Court of Appeals rejected plaintiff’s constitutional challenge that the recent amendment to the parked vehicle exclusions [§3106(2)] violates guarantees of equal protection by denying no-fault benefits to those individuals who are eligible to receive workers' compensation benefits and who suffer injury while unloading a motor vehicle. The court applied the "rational relation" test and cited the Supreme Court's opinion Shavers v Attorney General (item number 255) in rejecting the equal protection claim.
