MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 0223-15-3 	PER CURIAM
SEPTEMBER 15, 2015
VPI STATE UNIVERSITY/
COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Catherine Rebecca Rogers, pro se, on brief).
(Mark R. Herring, Attorney General; Rhodes B. Ritenour, Deputy
Attorney General; Scott J. Fitzgerald, Senior Assistant Attorney
General; Mary Hendricks Hawkins, Assistant Attorney General, on
brief), for appellee.
Catherine Rebecca Rogers (claimant) appeals the decision by the Workers’
Compensation Commission (commission) denying her request for benefits because claimant
failed to prove an injury by accident. On appeal, claimant argues that (1) the evidence proved an
injury by accident; and (2) the commission erred in finding that she did not meet the
requirements for the admission of after-discovered evidence.
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 opinion.
See Rogers v. VPI State Univ., JCN VA00000928885 (Jan. 9, 2015). We dispense with oral
argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented
* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.

claimant failed to comply with Rules 5A:2, 5A:4(b), 5A:20, 5A:24, 5A:25, and 5A:26. Since we
summarily affirm, we deny the motion to dismiss.
