COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges Frank, McClanahan and Senior Judge Willis JANICE LUCILLE NIPPER v. Record No. 2879-06-3 MEMORANDUM OPINION* PER CURIAM APRIL 17, 2007 COUNTY OF TAZEWELL SCHOOL BOARD AND VIRGINIA ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES GROUP SELF-INSURANCE ASSOCIATION FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Karel Brown Ryan; Ryan Law Firm, PC, on brief), for appellant. (Richard D. Lucas; Lucas Law Firm, PLC, on brief), for appellees. Janice Lucille Nipper appeals a decision of the Workers Compensation Commission finding that she failed to prove she sustained an injury by accident arising out of her employment on October 8, 2005. 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 Nipper v. Tazewell (County of) School Bd., VWC File No. 225-77-50 (Oct. 17, 2006). 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.
