Eastman v. Transport Insurance Comp

Paul Eastman appeals from the Workers’ Compensation Court’s determination that he did not prove by a preponderance of the evidence that an August, 1981, injury caused his disability and from the order denying a new trial. We affirm.

We state the issues on appeal as follows:

1. Did the Workers’ Compensation Court err in concluding that the August, 1981, injury did not cause claimant’s disability?

2. Did the Workers’ Compensation Court err in denying the petition for new trial?

Paul Eastman (Eastman) was employed as a pick up and delivery driver for Garrett Freightlines (later ANR Freight Systems)…
