Case
The case of Morgan versus organ Motors revolves on the appeal of David M. Morgan on denying his workers compensation against Morgan Motors Company. Morgan requested the opinion and award of the North Carolina Industry Commission to review whether the Commission had errors in concluding on the plaintiff’s case on whether accidents occurred while working with the company. Morgan Motors was accused of denying workers their compensation by injuries that happened in the course of their employment with Morgan Company. The case was heard by George T. Glenn, a deputy commissioner on 7th March 2011 and 23 May 2011 and he found that Plaintiff sustained a compensation injury by accident arising out of its activities with employees while undertaking their duties. Therefore, he filed an opinion and award on compensable injury against the Plaintiff.
Facts

Issue
Should workers in an organization be compensated for injuries even though they get the injuries out of company’s duties?
Rule
No. If workers are injured out of duty, they should not be compensated by the corporation. However, the company can give a hand in medical bill.
Reason
It is illogic to file a case against a company claims on noncompliance on compensation for workers injured out of duties. The industrial courts’ rulings do not warrant compensable injury by accident arising out of the scope of employment. Therefore, the judgment of Morgan Motors Company needs appeal and review to analyze whether the workers were injured while undertaking their duties.
