## Opinion text

11 ARMSTRONG, J.,
dissenting with reasons.
I respectfully dissent. The references to a possible “temporal requirement” of the two-contract defense in our Crochet, Taylor, and Black decisions are dicta as the general contract in fact predated the subcontract in each of those cases. Also, there is no apparent reason for such a temporal requirement of the two-contract defense. 14 Malone & Johnson, Louisiana Civil Law Treatise: Worker’s Compensation Law and Practice § 364 at 192-93 (1994).
