Matea Sanchez Galindo v. La-Z-Boy, Inc., et al.

Posted by: Stacey Shrader Joslin on Mar 17, 2025

Court: TN Workers Comp Appeals Board

Attorneys 1: Matea Sanchez Galindo, Dayton, Tennessee, employee-appellant, pro se.

Attorneys 2: Prairie A. Arnold, Chattanooga, Tennessee, for the employer-appellee, La-Z-Boy, Inc.

Judge(s): GODKIN

The employee filed a notice of appeal in Spanish purportedly seeking to appeal the trial court’s denial of her motion to continue a summary judgment hearing. Despite having been instructed that the notice of appeal must be in English and having been provided resources to assist with obtaining the translation, the employee failed to file anything further. Accordingly, we are unable to discern any issues or argument on appeal, and the appeal is therefore dismissed. The case is remanded to the trial court.
