An injured school bus aide successfully appealed the denial of her claim for medical expense and wage loss caused by a head injury when her school bus unexpectedly lurched forward without warning, throwing her to the floor of the bus where she sustained her concussion. The Workers compensation trial judge found no injury had occurred, based on the opinion of the adverse examining psychologist hired by the workers compensation insurer for the worker's employer, as well as his own review of the security camera video footage depicting the actual occurrence.
It is hard to know what is truth vs. campaign gibberish. Listening to candidates tout their own health care plans and criticize existing plans can cloud the issues.
A Minnesota District Court trial judge in Duluth has ordered a property & casualty insurance company to cover a Duluth man's property damage resulting from city water main break a week before Christmas, 2013. Coverage for more than $20,000 in damage to the home and its contents from water flowing into the home from the broken water main was denied by the insurer. The Duluth homeowner retained attorney Jim Balmer, who first brought an action against the City of Duluth for the damage. When that claim was dismissed on immunity grounds by the Minnesota District Court, Jim brought suit against the insurer, contending the policy afforded coverage for this sort of loss.
A young Duluth area woman injured while on the job in Wisconsin has had her award of compensation by the workers' compensation trial judge upheld by the Minnesota Workers' Compensation Court of Appeals. Hired in Duluth by a national company, the woman sustained a low back injury while on the job in Superior, Wisconsin, one of the sites her duties required her to work. The employer denied the claim, initially because it contended her injuries were aggravated by a fall away from work.
