v. 	Record No. 3090-06-4
MONROE EDWARD ALGER
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Julie H. Heiden; Koonz, McKenney, Johnson, DePaolis &
Lightfoot, L.L.P., on briefs), for Monroe Edward Alger.
(Joseph C. Veith, III; Trichilo, Bancroft, McGavin, Horvath &
Judkins, P.C., on briefs), for Dynalectric Company and American
Casualty Company of Reading, Pennsylvania.
Monroe Edward Alger (claimant) appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation
Commission finding that he failed to prove he remained totally disabled after July 29, 2005 and
continuing as a result of his March 18, 2004 compensable injury by accident. Dynalectric
Company and its insurer appeal that same decision finding that claimant’s back condition,
disability, and medical treatment after June 22, 2004, were causally related to his compensable
injury by accident. We have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find that
* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.

these appeals are without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
commission in its final opinion. See Alger v. Dynalectric Co., VWC File No. 218-33-69 (Nov.
16, 2006). 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.
