COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA

Present: Judges Elder, Beales and Senior Judge Annunziata

STANLEY MAURICE HOOD MEMORANDUM OPINION * v. Record No. 2732-08-4 PER CURIAM APRIL 14, 2009 GDI, INC. AND NATIONAL FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY

FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION (James R. Becker, on brief), for appellant.

(Jennifer G. Capocelli; Law Offices of Roya Palmer Ewing, on brief), for appellees.

Stanley Maurice Hood (claimant) contends the Workers’ Compensation Commission erred in finding that his application alleging a change in condition was barred by the applicable statute of limitations contained in Code § 65.2-708. We have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Hood v. GDI, Inc., VWC File No. 208-18-62 (Oct. 17, 2008). We dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.

Affirmed.

* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.
