Bates v. Dedicated Management Group, LLC

MYERS, J.,

for the Court:

¶ 1. Terrience Bates appeals from the Lincoln County Circuit Court’s judgment affirming the decision of Mississippi Workers’ Compensation Commission (Commission) to deny the compensability of Bates’s alleged work-related injury. The Commission reversed the administrative judge’s (AJ) ruling that Bates had sustained a work-related injury to his lower back sometime during August 2005, while working for his employer Dedicated Management Group, LLC (DMG). Because the record evidence sufficiently supports the Commission’s decision, we affirm the circuit court’s judgment.
