Strang-Hatcher Corporation 27 and Sedgwick CMS v. Sharon L. Sherman

COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: 	Judges Petty, Chafin and Senior Judge Annunziata
STRANG-HATCHER CORPORATION 27
AND SEDGWICK CMS
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 1960-13-1 	PER CURIAM
FEBRUARY 4, 2014
SHARON L. SHERMAN
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Rachel A. Riordan; Kalbaugh, Pfund & Messersmith, on briefs), for
appellants.
(John H. Klein; Montagna, Klein, Camden, LLP, on brief), for
appellee.
Strang-Hatcher Corporation 27 and Sedgwick CMS appeal the decision of the Workers’
Compensation Commission (commission) finding that Sharon L. Sherman’s (claimant) ongoing
medical conditions were causally related to the compensable injury by accident and that
claimant’s need for pain management treatment was reasonable, medically necessary, and
causally related to the accident. We have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and
find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
commission in its final opinion. See Sherman v. Strang-Hatcher Corp., JCN VA02000008167
(Sept. 12, 2013). We dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court
and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
Affirmed.
* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.
