Darwin D. Buhler v. Edwin Gossner Et Al‪.‬

CROCKETT, Justice: Darwin D. Buhler sued for wrongful death of his 15 year old son, Robert Lee Buhler, who met his death while working in a
grain silo on defendants' dairy farm in Cache County. Defendants had arranged Workmen's Compensation coverage for their employees;
and they claim the protection of the statute which provides that is the exclusive remedy for injury or death to an employee.
1 Plaintiff counters that defendants are not entitled to that protection for two reasons: that no notice of such coverage
was posted on the premises; and that Robert as a minor was illegally being permitted to work near machinery. Upon the basis
of the pleadings, interrogatories, and the depositions, the trial court rejected plaintiff's contention and granted defendants'
motion for summary judgment against the plaintiff; and the latter appeals.
