Ottema v. State Ex Rel. Wyoming Worker's Compensation Division
Wyoming Supreme Court

1Opinion of the Court
LEHMAN, Chief Justice.
Appellant Vernon D. Ottema (Ottema) seeks review of the hearing examiner’s denial of his 1995 application for extended permanent total disability benefits. Ottema claims the hearing examiner erroneously applied the 1987 provision regarding eligibility rather than the law in effect in 1985, the time of his original injury. Pursuant to our holding in Rodgers v. State, ex rel. Workers’ Compensation Div., 939 P.2d 246, 249 (Wyo.1997), we affirm the hearing examiner’s order denying benefits.
