Workers’ Compensation: SIF Liability-Sufficiency of Evidence-Hearing Loss

Staff Report//May 8, 2020//

Listen to this article

Where a claimant challenged the denial of his claim against the Second Injury Fund for benefits, the claimant failed to meet his burden to show that he was permanently totally disabled due to a combination of his preexisting Parkinson’s disease and his hearing loss and tinnitus, and the evidence was sufficient to support the award.

Judgment is affirmed.

Gunn v. Treasurer (MLW No. 75008/Case No. SD36380 – 13 pages) (Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District, Lynch, J.) Appealed from the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission.
