Court: TN Workers Comp Appeals

Attorneys 1:

Hugh P. Garner, Chattanooga, Tennessee, for the appellant, Kenneth Cameron.

Attorneys 2:

C. Scott Johnson, Chattanooga, Tennessee, for the appellees, United Parcel Services, Inc. and Liberty Mutual Fire Insurance Company.

Judge(s): ANDERSON

The employee was injured in a motor vehicle accident while at work. He claimed permanent injury to his left elbow and left shoulder. The trial court found that his left elbow was permanently injured but that his left shoulder was not permanently injured. The employee has appealed, contending that the trial court erred by not finding that the left shoulder was permanently injured, by not awarding additional temporary disability benefits, and by failing to order surgery for his left shoulder. The appeal has been referred to the Special Workers’ Compensation Appeals Panel for a hearing and a report of findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 51. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
