Kentucky Supreme Court orders Encova to pay in workers’ comp dispute


The Supreme Court of Kentucky’s Oct. 23, 2025 decision involved Roger Hall, a former teacher and substitute at Letcher County High School, who filed for workers’ compensation after developing mesothelioma. Hall’s initial claim named Kentucky Employers’ Mutual Insurance (KEMI) as the carrier, based on exposure dates from 1976 to 2003. Later, Hall amended his claim to state that his last asbestos exposure occurred on April 18, 2014, his final day as a substitute teacher.
