Gale Wolfmeier v Diocese of Jefferson City and Treasurer of Mo
Missouri Employers Mutual Ins. Co. (settled)
Release date: Oct 4, 2019
Venue: Cole County
Plot Summary: The Commission majority affirms an award of a minimal load factor of 1.75% in a claim against the second injury fund with a primary back injury at 8.75% and a pre-existing hand injury. The commission affirmed a denial of other claims of synergistic load as conclusory, and not clearly established from other prior conditions such as nose bleeds and headaches. A dissenting commission would have increased the amount of a load factor to 5% and considered the prior ankle in any award against the fund.
