COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges McClanahan, Haley and Senior Judge Willis CLAUDE WESLY STOOTS v. Record No. 1699-10-3 MEMORANDUM OPINION * PER CURIAM JANUARY 11, 2011 BOART LONGYEAR COMPANY AND ZURICH AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Ginger J. Largen; J.D. Morefield; Morefield & Largen, on brief), for appellant. (Kevin W. Cloe; Angela F. Gibbs; Midkiff, Muncie & Ross, P.C., on brief), for appellees. Claude W. Stoots appeals a decision of the Workers Compensation Commission finding that Stoots did not adequately market his residual work capacity. 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 Stoots v. Boart Longyear Co., VWC File No. 232-80-81 (July 8, 2010). 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.
