TOPICAL INDEXING:
Not Applicable
CASE SUMMARY:
The Supreme Court has granted leave to appeal the three above cases. They are to be argued and submitted in the May 1979 session of the Court and the appeal is limited to the following questions:
1. In workers' compensation the exclusive benefit for an employee injured in a motor vehicle accident in the course of his employment when the motor vehicle is insured under no-fault;
2. If an injured worker may receive no-fault benefits from the motor vehicle insurance in addition to workers' compensation benefits, is it valid to treat self-insured companies different from companies with a separate insurer and, is the offset of §3109(1) valid in this situation.
Apparently the issue presented in Pollock v Frankenmuth (item number 41) is being considered in the above order granting leave to appeal inasmuch as the pending Pollock appeal was dismissed by the parties with prejudice on November 15, 1978.
