Poplin v. State
Poplin v. State
Dissenting Opinion
dissents:
I dissent in this case for the reasons which I have set out in my dissenting opinion in Myers v. State of Colorado, 162 Colo. 435, 428 P.2d 83.
Opinion of the Court
delivered the opinion of the Court.
The issue posed by this writ of error is whether the various statutory provisions found in C.R.S. 1963, 81-12-1 (5) (a) and (b) apply to the situation where a person, who is receiving weekly benefits under workmen’s compensation, is thereafter granted a disability annuity by the Public Employees’ Retirement Association of Colorado.
This issue has been considered by us in Myers v. State of Colorado, 162 Colo. 435, 428 P.2d 83.
In the Myers case we held that the aforementioned statute does apply to such a disability annuity.
The judgment is therefore affirmed.
Mr. Justice Day and Mr. Justice Pringle dissent.
