Texas Workers' Compensation Insurance Fund, Petitioner v. Del Industrial, Inc., Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals, holding that under the Staff Leasing Services Act a client company is not required to pay workers’ compensation premiums for employees leased from a staff leasing company when the leasing company declines coverage, and that the Act supersedes the common‑law right‑of‑control test for determining employer status.
