Missouri Court of Appeals, 2006

Ketchum v. Commercial Installation & Construction Co.

Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided January 24, 2006 · Gaertner, III, Romines

186 S.W.3d 416; 2006 Mo. App. LEXIS 108; 2006 WL 163004 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

Opinion of the Court

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Commercial Installation and Construction Co. and Missouri Printing Industry Trust1 appeal the Labor and Industrial Commission’s (Commission’s) award of permanent total disability benefits to Charles E. Ketchum (Ketchum). On appeal, Commercial argues that the Commission erred as a matter of law and exceeded its jurisdiction when it awarded Ketchum permanent total disability benefits. Ket-chum’s attorney, Lawrence 0. Willbrand (Willbrand), cross-appeals the Commission’s limitation of his attorney’s fees award.2

Considering the whole record, the Commission’s decision is supported by sufficient, competent and substantial evidence. We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the Record on Appeal, and we find no error of law in this case. Thus, a written opinion would have no precedential value. The judgment is affirmed pursuant to Rule 84.16(b)(4).

. Appellants will collectively be referred to as “Commercial.''

. The Second Injury Fund was originally a party in this case. However, the Commission did not find Second Injury Fund liability, and neither is this liability an issue on appeal.
