COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: 	Judges Frank, Clements and Haley
BARRY OGBURN FLETCHER
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 0222-06-1 	PER CURIAM
JULY 18, 2006
HUGH M. MORRIS CONSTRUCTION, INC. AND
COMMONWEALTH CONTRACTORS GROUP
SELF-INSURANCE ASSOCIATION
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Barry O. Fletcher, pro se, on brief).
(Lisa Frisina Clement; PennStuart, on brief), for appellees.
Barry O. Fletcher appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission finding
that he was an independent contractor and not an employee of Hugh M. Morris Construction,
Inc. 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 Fletcher v. Hugh M. Morris Constr., Inc., VWC File No. 221-67-53 (Dec. 28,
2005).1 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.
* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.
1 In affirming the commission’s opinion, we have not considered any new evidence
submitted by Fletcher in his appendix or opening brief.
