Outcome

The Utah Court of Appeals affirmed the Labor Commission's decision awarding attorney fees to Mary Dee Cox. The court held that Cox was entitled to attorney fees under Utah Code section 34A-1-309(4)(a) because medical benefits were not approved by the employer when she filed her application for hearing, and benefits were subsequently paid after she retained an attorney.
