Docket entry

042656 Safeway, Inc. v. DPI Midatlantic, Inc. 09/16/2005 The exclusivity provision of the Virginia Workers' Compensation Act, Code § 65.2-307, does not invalidate an express indemnity agreement between an employer and a third party, nor do any provisions of the Act prohibit parties from entering into such an agreement. The circuit court therefore erred in sustaining an employer's plea in bar based on such a provision and in dismissing the third party plaintiff's motion for judgment asserting claims arising under the indemnity agreement. The judgment of the circuit court is reversed and the case is remanded for further proceedings.
