COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: 	Chief Judge Fitzpatrick, Judge Bumgardner and Senior Judge Hodges
SUSAN ELAINE MANOLA
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 2367-03-4 	PER CURIAM
JUNE 29, 2004
FAIRFAX COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Kathleen G. Walsh, on brief), for appellant.
(Michael N. Salveson; Hunton & Williams, LLP, on brief), for
appellee.
Susan Elaine Manola (claimant) appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation
Commission finding that she failed to prove the medical treatment rendered by Dr. Stephen M.
Levin from November 2000 through July 16, 2001, constituted reasonable and necessary medical
attention within the meaning of the Workers’ Compensation Act. We have reviewed the record
and the commission’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Manola v. Fairfax (County of) School
Board, VWC File No. 199-88-11 (Aug. 8, 2003). 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. 1
Affirmed.
* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.
1 Because we summarily affirm the commission’s decision, we will assume, without
deciding, that claimant timely filed her notice of appeal.
