Court of Civil Appeals of Alabama August 29, 2003, 2020278 (Eldeco, Inc. v. Romines)

Because I believe that Romines suffered a compensable injury, I must respectfully dissent from the main opinion. As the main opinion points out, the trial court and Romines treated Romines's claim as one seeking compensation for a nonaccidental injury. For an injury to be compensable, it must be "caused by an accident arising out of and in the course of" the employee's employment. § 25-5-51, Ala.
