Aetna Casualty & Surety Co. v. Ollie K

W. WAYNE OLIVER, Special Justice. In this workmen's compensation case, in which the trial court found and held that the plaintiff is totally and permanently
disabled by asthmatic bronchitis resulting from the conditions of her employment and awarded benefits accordingly, the defendant
urges upon us in this appeal that there was no material evidence to sustain the judgment of the trial court (1) that the plaintiff's
disease was so closely related to one of the statutory occupational diseases as to render it compensable under the Workmen's
Compensation Law of this State, (2) that the plaintiff's disease met the statutory criteria of an occupational disease, and
(3) that the plaintiff's claim was not barred by the notice and statute of limitations provisions of our Workmen's Compensation
Law.
