Opinion Delivered December 3, 2014
EARNEST STEAN DANIEL APPEAL FROM THE ARKANSAS APPELLANT WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION V. [NO. G208821]
WAL-MART STORES, INC., AND CLAIMS MANAGEMENT, INC. APPELLEES AFFIRMED
BRANDON J. HARRISON, Judge
Earnest Daniel appeals the Arkansas Workers’ Compensation Commission’s
decision that she did not sufficiently prove that she sustained a compensable back injury.
She essentially argues that the Commission erred in finding her not credible and in
disregarding medical evidence that she says documents a workplace injury. We affirm.
The arguments advanced by Daniel challenge the sufficiency of the evidence.
These arguments are based entirely on matters of weight and credibility, which rest solely
with the Commission. See St. Edward Mercy Med. Ctr. v. Warnock,
2013 Ark. App. 518,
429 S.W.3d 348. Because the only substantial question involved in the appeal is the
sufficiency of the evidence, and because the Commission’s opinion adequately explains the
decision, we affirm by memorandum opinion pursuant to sections (a) and (b) of our per
curiam In re Memorandum Opinions,
16 Ark. App. 301,
700 S.W.2d 63(1985). 1 Cite as

HIXSON and WOOD, JJ., agree.
