COUSINS v. GEORGIA-PACIFIC CORP.11/8/1991 that causes work-connected injury. See 39 M.R.S.A. § 61 (1989). That section provides that "No compensation or other benefits shall be allowed for the injury or death of an employee . . . occasioned by his willful intention to bring about an injury or death of himself or of another . . . ." 39 M.R.S.A. § 61. Thus, the Legislature has seen fit to penalize a very limited form of misconduct and we deem it inappropriate for us to expand that narrow provision.
The entry is:
Decision of the Appellate Division affirmed.
It is ordered that the employer pay to the employee $750 for attorney fees plus the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for this appeal.
All concurring.
