Present: 	Judges Frank, Alston and Senior Judge Coleman
VOLVO TRUCKS OF NORTH AMERICA, INC. AND
LIBERTY INSURANCE CORPORATION
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 0043-10-3 	PER CURIAM
MAY 18, 2010
CHANNON MELISSA MAYCOCK
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Christopher M. Kite; Lucas & Kite, PLC, on brief), for appellants.
(Bryan G. Bosta; Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore, on brief), for
appellee.
Volvo Trucks of North America, Inc. and Liberty Insurance Corporation (employer)
appeal a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission finding that Channon Melissa
Maycock (claimant) provided sufficient medical evidence to prove she suffered from an
occupational disease and was entitled to compensation. Employer also contends that if the
medical evidence proved claimant suffered from any type of occupational disease, the evidence
established, at best, the occupational exacerbation of a preexisting ordinary disease of life. 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
Maycock v. Volvo Trucks of North America, Inc., VWC File No. 239-91-20 (Dec. 7, 2009). We
dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are
* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.

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.
