ALICE BAUGUS v. TENNESSEE FARMERS MUTUAL INS. CO., ET AL.

Posted by: Tanja Trezise on Jul 18, 2023

Court: TN Workers Comp Appeals Board

Attorneys 1: Alice Baugus, Mt. Pleasant, Tennessee, employee-appellant, pro se

Attorneys 2: Gordon C. Aulgur, Nashville, Tennessee, for the employer-appellee, Tennessee Farmers Mutual Insurance Company

Judge(s): GODKIN

In this appeal, the employee contends the trial court should set aside an order approving the settlement of her workers’ compensation claim because she did not have the emotional or mental capacity to enter into the settlement agreement. Following a hearing, the trial court concluded the employee failed to provide grounds for relief by clear and convincing evidence. The employee has appealed. Having carefully reviewed the record, we affirm the trial court’s decision and certify it as final.
