Description
Workmen's compensation -- employer and third person subject to act -- right of recovery against third person. An electric power company, a customer to whom it furnishes electricity, and a contractor employed by the customer to perform priming, painting, spraying, and similar work on its building are not engaged in the accomplishment of the same or related purposes within the meaning of the workmen's compensation act, Minn. St. 1941, Γ§ 176.06 (Mason St. 1940 Supp. Γ§ 4272-5). Hence, in an action by an employe of the contractor against the electric power company to recover damages for injuries sustained through its negligence while he is performing his work for his employer, allegations in the electric power company's answer that it and its customer and the contractor were engaged in the same or related purposes should be stricken as irrelevant.
