Lesmeister v. North Dakota Workers Compensation Bureau

NEUMANN, Justice.

[¶ 1] The North Dakota Workers Compensation Bureau appeals from a district court judgment reversing a Bureau order denying Beverly Lesmeister disability benefits on her reapplication for a 1983 work injury and on her application for a 1999 work injury. We hold the Bureau’s findings that Lesmeister was terminated for misconduct and did not sustain an actual wage loss caused by any significant worsening of her 1983 work injury and that she was not entitled to disability benefits as a result of her 1999 work injury are supported by a preponderance of evidence. We reverse.
