Brown v. Department of Correction

Opinion

SCHALLER, J.

The plaintiff, Edward Brown, appeals from the judgment of the workers’ compensation review board (board) affirming the decision of the workers’ compensation commissioner (commissioner) dismissing his claim for workers’ compensation benefits. On appeal, the plaintiff contends that the board improperly (1) reached a conclusion unsupported by the findings of the commissioner and (2) concluded, as a matter of law, that he was required to demonstrate that his employer benefited from his participation in a charity event. We affirm the decision of the board.1
