Map which compensation statute the file might fall under
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- Table the employer named, the place of the injury, and whether the file describes a federal employee or maritime employment. Do not say which statute pays, and write no sentence of a claim.
- What the lawyer must review
- 5 U.S.C. § 8102 requires the United States to pay compensation for disability or death of an employee from personal injury sustained in the performance of duty, unless the injury or death was caused by willful misconduct, by intent to bring about injury or death, or proximately by intoxication. 33 U.S.C. § 905(a) makes the employer's liability under that chapter exclusive where it applies, with a suit against the employer preserved if compensation is not secured. Subsection (b) allows a vessel-negligence action in the cases it states, and bars it in the shipbuilding, repairing, and breaking cases it states. You decide which statute applies. State workers' compensation was not opened.
