Christopher S. Rickard sued Shoals Distributing, Inc., under Alabama Code 1975, § 25-5-11.1, alleging that it had fired him in retaliation for his filing a worker's compensation claim. The trial court dismissed the plaintiff's complaint on the grounds that § 25-5-11.1 is invalid. Rickard appeals.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.
