Kenneth Dale Roberson v. Loretto Casket

In this Workers Compensation case, the Lawrence County Circuit Court awarded Plaintiff, Kenneth D. Roberson, permanent partial disability benefits for 95% impairment to his right eye, a scheduled member under T.C.A. § 50-6-207 (3) (A). The Plaintiff had appealed as of right, challenging the trial courts denial of additional temporary total benefits and the award of benefits based on impairment to only one eye rather than to his entire visual field. The Defendants, Loretto Casket Co. and Federal Kemper Insurance Co., have filed a Motion for Frivolous Appeal.
