Wilda Sellers Clear v. Piney Forest Healthcare Center and Hartford Casualty Insurance Company

COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: 	Judges Humphreys, Beales and Senior Judge Fitzpatrick
WILDA SELLERS CLEAR
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 0930-06-3 	PER CURIAM
AUGUST 22, 2006
PINEY FOREST HEALTHCARE CENTER AND
HARTFORD CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANY
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Stephen G. Bass; Carter Craig, on brief), for appellant.
(Richard D. Lucas; Lucas Law Firm, PLC, on brief), for appellees.
Wilda Sellers Clear appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission
finding that (1) she failed to prove a compensable cervical condition causally related to her
September 30, 2004 work injury; and (2) she was not entitled to medical benefits for treatment of
that condition or wage loss benefits commencing February 5, 2005. 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 Clear v. Piney Forest
Healthcare Center, VWC File No. 221-16-80 (Mar. 8, 2006). 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.
