Fortner v. Safeway Stores Inc‪.‬

[229 CalApp3d Page 545] In this action alleging discrimination based on a physical handicap, the trial court granted summary judgment to defendants on the ground that plaintiff's exclusive remedy rested in Labor Code section 132a.1 Plaintiff appeals, contending that defendants failed to meet their burden of proving the elements required to assert this section as an affirmative defense to the action. We affirm this judgment.
