UNPUBLISHED COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges Humphreys, O’Brien and Senior Judge Bumgardner TIER 1, L.L.C. AND TECHNOLOGY INSURANCE COMPANY v. Record No. 1568-15-2 MEMORANDUM OPINION* PER CURIAM FEBRUARY 2, 2016 DAVID ALBERTO SANDRES-SANCHEZ FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION (S. Vernon Priddy III; Stephen A. Marshall; Two Rivers Law Group, P.C., on brief), for appellants. (Bryan G. Bosta; Becker, Kellogg & Berry, P.C., on brief), for appellee. Tier 1, L.L.C. and Technology Insurance Company (appellants) appeal a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission. Appellants allege the Commission erred in finding the evidence sufficient to prove that David Alberto Sandres-Sanchez was an employee of Tier 1, rather than an independent contractor, when he sustained an injury by accident arising out of his 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 opinion. See Sandres-Sanchez v. Tier 1, L.L.C., VWC File VA02000017292 (Sept. 1, 2015). 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.
