In this appeal, we are asked to determine whether the owner/developer of the Bayshore Townhomes project, The Ryland Group, Inc. (Ryland), is entitled to immunity from tort liability in an action filed by an injured employee of one of the subcontractors working on the project. We conclude that Ryland is not the injured workers statutory employer under section 440.10(1)(b), Florida Statutes (1999), and therefore, is not entitled to the immunity provided by section 440.11. Because the trial court reached a contrary conclusion, we reverse the final summary judgment entered in this case.
