Does a State's workers compensation statute
violate Equal Protection when it treats Minnesota
residents injured on the job in Minnesota differently
based on whether the employer is located in North
Dakota rather than any other State?

Where a Minnesota resident, whose payroll taxes
are paid to Minnesota, is injured on the job in
Minnesota, can the State of Minnesota deprive him of
a common law cause of action, as well as deny him
workers compensation benefits, by mandating that
his exclusive remedy is in the workers compensation
system of North Dakota because that is the home of
the worker's employer?
