North Lebanon Township v. Workers' Compensation Appeal Board

OPINION BY

Judge SMITH-RIBNER.

North Lebanon Township appeals from an order of the Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board (Board) that affirmed the decision of a Workers’ Compensation Judge (WCJ), which dismissed the fatal claim petition filed by Elaine Harbaugh (Claimant), widow of decedent Calvin Har-baugh, against North Cornwall Township but granted the claim petition against North Lebanon Township and awarded Claimant death benefits of $561 per week commencing on August 18, 1998. On appeal of North Lebanon, the Board modified the weekly death benefit to $286.11 but otherwise affirmed the WCJ. 1
