Description

Per Curiam. This is a personal injury action brought in a federal district court on diversity of citizenship grounds by a workman who was injured in a fall at a manufacturing plant owned by Defendant North American Philips Lighting corporation. The main question presented in the appeal is whether the Kentucky workers' compensation statute insulates Defendant Philips from common law tort liability. The district court answered that question -- correctly, we believe -- in the affirmative. A subsidiary question is whether the district court abused its discretion in permitting the defendant to set up its workers' compensation act defense by an amendment to the answer filed only a few days before the start of trial. We find no abuse of ;discretion. Accordingly, we shall affirm the judgment entered by the trial court on a directed verdict in favor of the defendant.
