About Workers’ Compensation Claims

Workers' compensation claims arise in the context of employment law when employers retaliate against employees for filing workers' compensation claims or when disputes arise about coverage and benefits. Most states prohibit termination or other adverse actions against employees who exercise their workers' compensation rights.

Derinda Carr v. Windham Professionals, Inc.
Tenn.Apr 14, 2022

Appellant Derinda Carr challenges the trial court's finding her neck injury did not arise primarily "out of and in the course and scope of' her employment. The appeal has been referred to the Special Workers' Compensation Appeals Panel for a hearing and a report of findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 51. We agree with the trial court and affirm the judgment.
