§908. Scope of sections 901 to 907; effect of judgment or settlement
Sections 901 to 907 do not apply to injuries caused to domestic servants or farm laborers by fellow employees or to those engaged in cutting, hauling or driving logs. Nothing in sections 901 to 907 may be construed to abridge any common-law rights or remedies which the employee may have against the employer, but a judgment recovered under sections 901 to 907 or a settlement of any action commenced or claim made for death or injury under the provisions of those sections is a bar to any claim made or action begun to recover for the same injury or the same death, under the common law or under any other statute. [1991, c. 885, Pt. A, §§9-11 (AFF); 1991, c. 885, Pt. A, §8 (NEW).]
