We <a href="http://www.wcmlaw.com/blog/Default.aspx?g=posts&amp;t=699">previously reported</a> on <em>Kenneth Van Dunk , Sr. and Deborah Van Dunk vs. Reckson Associates, et al. </em>in which the Appellate Division allowed an employee suit to go forward against an employer on the grounds of an intentional wrong.  The NJ Supreme Court has now <a href="http://pdf.wcmlaw.com/pdf/VanDunk.pdf">reversed</a> the Appellate Division.  The Supreme Court held that plaintiff failed to establish sufficient evidence of the employer's commission of an intentional wrong and thus, as a matter of law, the workers' compensation law barred the lawsuit.
