COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges Benton, Humphreys and Senior Judge Overton ALPHONZO TAYLOR, SR. v. Record No. 2674-05-2 MEMORANDUM OPINION* PER CURIAM MARCH 14, 2006 POCAHONTAS CORRECTIONAL UNIT #13/ COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Alphonzo Taylor, Sr., pro se, on brief). (Robert F. McDonnell, Attorney General; Maureen Riley Matsen, Deputy Attorney General; Peter R. Messitt, Senior Assistant Attorney General; Scott John Fitzgerald, Senior Assistant Attorney General, on brief), for appellee. Alphonzo Taylor, Sr. appeals a decision of the Workers Compensation Commission terminating his award of compensation benefits effective April 4, 2005. He contends no credible evidence supports the commission s finding that Pocahontas Correctional Unit #13 proved he was released to return to his pre-injury work. We have reviewed the record and the commission s opinion and hold that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm the commission s decision for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Taylor v. Pocahontas Correctional Unit #13, VWC File No. 215-99-12 (Oct. 6, 2005). 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.
