Loews Vanderbilt Plaza Hotel v. Stephanie Keaton Simon

The defendant employee, Stephanie Keaton Simon, raises two issues, arguing that the trial judge erred in (1) failing, in the face of reasonable doubt regarding causation, to grant all inferences to Simon, and (2) finding that Simon's injury did not arise in the course of her employment. The Panel concludes that the evidence does not preponderate against the finding that Simon's injury arose outside the course of her employment. Furthermore, we do not find error in the trial court's asserted failure to resolve all reasonable doubt in Simon's favor regarding causation. Therefore, we affirm the judgment of the Chancery Court for Davidson County.
