COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: 	Judges Humphreys, Beales and Senior Judge Fitzpatrick
LOWE’S OF CHARLOTTESVILLE #517 AND
SPECIALTY RISK SERVICES
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 0590-07-3 	PER CURIAM
JULY 31, 2007
JOHN W. GARVER
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Calvin W. Fowler; J.P. McGuire Boyd; Williams Mullen, on brief),
for appellants.
(George L. Townsend; The Chandler Law Group, on brief), for
appellee.
Lowe’s of Charlottesville #517 and its insurer appeal a decision of the Workers’
Compensation Commission finding that John W. Garver proved his back surgery and total
disability beginning June 22, 2005 were causally related to his compensable March 20, 2003
injury by 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 Garver v. Lowe’s of Charlottesville #0517, VWC File No. 216-13-82 (Feb.
14, 2007). 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.
