UNPUBLISHED COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges Petty, Chafin and Senior Judge Annunziata ANTHONY ROLLINS v. Record No. 0479-13-2 MEMORANDUM OPINION* PER CURIAM AUGUST 13, 2013 RICHARDSON-WAYLAND ELECTRICAL COMPANY, LLC AND ZURICH AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (William G. Shields; Lloyd J. Eisenberg; The Shields Law Firm, on brief), for appellant. (Frederick T. Schubert, II; Angela F. Gibbs; Midkiff, Muncie, and Ross, P.C., on brief), for appellees. Anthony Rollins appeals a decision of the Workers Compensation Commission finding that his fall and/or his contact with a high voltage electrical line are unexplained, and, as a result, his injuries are not compensable. On appeal, Rollins (1) challenges the finding that the accident was unexplained, and (2) contends the evidence proved an injury by accident arising out of and in the course of employment. 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 Rollins v. Richardson-Wayland Elec. Co., VWC File No. VA00000475918 (Feb. 15, 2013). 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.
