1Opinion of the CourtCarson, J.
In this workers’ compensation case, claimant seeks compensation from two previous employers for her carpal tunnel syndrome. One employer, Marloc Corporation (Marloc), denied compensability. The other employer, Junction City Residential Center (Junction City Center), accepted claimant’s back injury claim but denied responsibility for her carpal tunnel syndrome. The issue on review is whether Junction City Center’s denial is barred by ORS 656.262(6), 3 as construed in Bauman v. SAIF, 295 Or 788, 790, 670 P2d 1027 (1983), which forbids insurers from denying previously accepted claims.
