UNPUBLISHED COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA Present: Judges Petty, Chafin and Senior Judge Annunziata STRANG-HATCHER CORPORATION 27 AND SEDGWICK CMS v. Record No. 1960-13-1 MEMORANDUM OPINION* PER CURIAM FEBRUARY 4, 2014 SHARON L. SHERMAN FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Rachel A. Riordan; Kalbaugh, Pfund & Messersmith, on briefs), for appellants. (John H. Klein; Montagna, Klein, Camden, LLP, on brief), for appellee. Strang-Hatcher Corporation 27 and Sedgwick CMS appeal the decision of the Workers Compensation Commission (commission) finding that Sharon L. Sherman s (claimant) ongoing medical conditions were causally related to the compensable injury by accident and that claimant s need for pain management treatment was reasonable, medically necessary, and causally related to the accident. 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 Sherman v. Strang-Hatcher Corp., JCN VA02000008167 (Sept. 12, 2013). 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.
