§ 406.032. EXCEPTIONS. An insurance carrier is not
liable for compensation if:
(1) the injury:
(A) occurred while the employee was in a state of
intoxication;
(B) was caused by the employee's wilful attempt
to injure himself or to unlawfully injure another person;
(C) arose out of an act of a third person intended
to injure the employee because of a personal reason and not directed
at the employee as an employee or because of the employment;
(D) arose out of voluntary participation in an
off-duty recreational, social, or athletic activity that did not
constitute part of the employee's work-related duties, unless the
activity is a reasonable expectancy of or is expressly or impliedly
required by the employment; or
(E) arose out of an act of God, unless the
employment exposes the employee to a greater risk of injury from an
act of God than ordinarily applies to the general public; or
(2) the employee's horseplay was a producing cause of
the injury.
