Clark v. State Ins Fund
Annotate this CaseAt issue in this case was a worker’s compensation claim stemming from an accident at an onion processing plant. Petitioner James Clark was injured when his right forearm was caught in a roller machine which resulted in significant soft-tissue damage. The Industrial Commission determined that Clark suffered a compensable injury and that he was entitled to medical treatment for approximately one year. The Commission also found that Clark had a permanent partial impairment (PPI) of 10% of the whole person and a permanent partial disability rated at 25% of the whole person. Clark appealed that determination pro se, arguing the Commission relied on fraudulent evidence because his medical records were fraudulently obtained. Finding no error, the Supreme Court affirmed.
