Supreme Court of Iowa June 17, 1992, 90-1881 (Dudley v. Ellis)

LARSON, Justice.

Tom Dudley, an employee of Iowa Power, sued several coemployees for injuries sustained in an electrical explosion. Dudley’s wife, Dixie, sued for her loss of consortium. We will refer to the plaintiffs simply as Dudley. A jury returned a substantial verdict for the plaintiff against one coemployee, William H. Ellis, who appealed to this court. We reverse.
