As promised, I am continuing to make CaseLaw Update available through the Detour & Frolic. And because I never met a case I didn’t like, I give you the following highlights……………..
From the January 18, 2017 Update:
- Dental Disfigurement due to missing teeth from heavy narcotic usage for work-related injury, check out Virgil Pugh & Kieran Sniadowski
- DME doc Fedder trumps treating doc Rudin in a surgery case in Barbara Zakarewicz
- There is no such thing as an after-the-fact “payment without prejudice”, see Ivan Taylor
- In another “Chris Baum Cherishable”, the Brenda Boyce decision contains a mini-treatise on the standard required for Res Judicata and Collateral Estoppel
- Priors on the down low…..IAB rescinds Agreement as to Comp where Claimant less than candid as to his pre-existings in Christopher Moore
- Taking a ride on the “resolved train” are Tamaryn Gardner and Kenyatta Brooks
- Ketamine on parade in Calvin Wilkerson and Sandra Thurston
From the May 2, 2017 Update:
-
- For a “casual employee” case, see Mary Lou Vail
- An example of “actual displacement” can be found in Walter Wright
- Bertha Schwartz is awarded residential nursing case
- The out-of-state medical provider amendment is not retroactive, so says the Stephanie Saulsbury case
- Vernon Robinson and a “popliteal pseudo aneurysm” related to work activity
My hope is to eventually have every CaseLaw Update archived, going back to the beginning, 20 plus years ago. A girl can dream, right? J
