COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Chief Judge Felton, Judge Petty and Senior Judge Bumgardner CLIFTON LEE BURNS, JR. v. Record No. 1240-08-1 MEMORANDUM OPINION * PER CURIAM SEPTEMBER 16, 2008 NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION AND INSURANCE COMPANY OF THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA/AIG DOMESTIC CLAIMS, INC. FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Gary R. West, on brief), for appellant. (Adam S. Rafal; Lisa L. Thatch; Vandeventer Black LLP, on brief), for appellees. Clifton Lee Burns, Jr. appeals a decision of the Workers Compensation Commission finding that he failed to prove his right lateral epicondylitis constituted a compensable occupational disease or ordinary disease of life. We have reviewed the record and the commission s opinion and find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Burns v. Northrop Grumman Corp., VWC File No. 228-09-09 (April 28, 2008). We dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27. Affirmed. * Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.
