319 S.E.2d 690 (1984)

Robert L. HENDERSON, Plaintiff-Employee, v. MANPOWER OF GUILFORD COUNTY, INC., and/or Benner & Fields, Inc., Defendant-Employers, and The Home Indemnity Company and/or Michigan Mutual Insurance Company, Defendant-Insurance Carriers.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

September 18, 1984.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Tuggle, Duggins, Meschan & Elrod by J. Reed Johnston, Jr., Greensboro, for defendants-appellants Manpower of Guilford County, Inc. and The Home Ins. Co.

Shope, McNeil & Maddox by E. Thomas Maddox, Jr., Greensboro, for defendants-appellees Benner & Fields, Inc. and Michigan Mut. Ins. Co.


PHILLIPS, Judge.

The only question presented is whether plaintiff was employed solely by Manpower, as determined by the Industrial Commission, or was employed jointly by Manpower and Benner & Fields, as the appellants contend. We hold that plaintiff was employed both by Manpower and Benner & Fields and that both are therefore liable for the Workers' Compensation payments received by plaintiff. Leggette v. McCotter, 265 N.C. 617
