Claim Types
Outcome
Court affirmed the award of death benefits to the worker's widow under workers' compensation law, holding that the two-year time limit runs from when the worker knew or should have known of a compensable injury rather than the date of the accident. However, the court reversed the apportionment of liability to the Subsequent Injury Fund due to employer's failure to substantially comply with the statutory certificate requirement.
