Outcome
The Ohio Supreme Court affirmed the Industrial Commission's denial of the claimant's permanent total disability compensation, finding that the commission's determination that the claimant voluntarily abandoned the workforce was supported by evidence in the record.
Excerpt
Workers' compensation—Whether a claimant has voluntarily retired or has abandoned the workforce is a question of fact for the Industrial Commission to determine—A court must uphold a factual determination by the commission so long as it is supported by some evidence in the record, regardless of whether evidence supporting a contrary conclusion also exists, even if the contrary evidence is greater in quality or quantity—Court of appeals' judgment affirmed.
