Elkins v. Adams Stone Corp.

REED, Judge.

Paul Dale Elkins complains that the Workmen’s Compensation Board did not properly determine the extent of his disability which resulted from a work-connected accident. The board awarded him approximately five months of temporary total disability and the cost of medical treatment, but Elkins claims he was legally entitled to an award based upon a finding of 40 percent permanent partial disability. When Elkins appealed to the circuit court, the board’s decision was upheld. Elkins then appealed to this court.
