Small v. J. C. Penney, Inc.

Louisiana Court of Appeal

1Opinion of the Court

WATSON, Judge.

Plaintiff, Georgia Small, has appealed from the trial court’s dismissal of her suit for workmen’s compensation benefits against her former employer, J. C. Penney, Inc. In May of 1977, Ms. Small was employed in J. C. Penney’s Alexandria, Louisiana store. On May 31, a Tuesday, her day off, plaintiff suffered a severe cerebrovas-cular hemorrhage. As a result of this stroke, Ms. Small is unquestionably disabled. The only issue on appeal is whether the trial court erred in holding that plaintiff’s “vascular accident” (TR. 80) was unrelated to her last day at work, Monday, May 30.
