Stelling v. Rivercrest Ranches, Inc.

Claimant, William Stelling, Jr., appeals the June 27, 1985, judgment of the Workers’ Compensation Court which awarded him only a small portion of the lump-sum advance he had requested. We affirm the lump-sum advance and dismiss the remainder of Stelling’s appeal for lack of standing.

Stelling was injured January 5,1981, in the scope and course of his employment with Rivercrest Ranches, Inc. He continued to work through June 8, 1981, entered the hospital June 10, 1981, and underwent back surgery June 15, 1981. A second operation was performed November 1, 1982.
