COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges Kelsey, Petty and Senior Judge Bumgardner WILLIAMS STEEL ERECTION COMPANY, INC. AND LUMBERMEN S UNDERWRITING ALLIANCE v. Record No. 0352-07-4 MEMORANDUM OPINION* PER CURIAM JULY 17, 2007 FRANK SAMUEL CONELY FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Scott C. Ford; Brian A. Richardson; McCandlish Holton, PC, on briefs), for appellants. (Wesley G. Marshall, on brief), for appellee. Williams Steel Erection Company, Inc. and its insurer appeal a decision of the Workers Compensation Commission finding that (1) Frank Samuel Conely s (claimant) claim for permanent partial disability benefits for disfigurement associated with his November 19, 1999 injury by accident was timely and not barred by the doctrine of laches; and (2) claimant was entitled to return to Dr. Robert M. Dombrowski for an impairment rating of his left wrist and right pinky finger injuries. 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 Conely v. Williams Steel Erection Co., Inc., VWC File No. 198-56-31 (Jan. 10, 2007). 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.
