Timothy Woody v. North Brothers, Inc.
E2001-00521-WC-R3-CV
Authoring Judge: W. Neil Thomas, III
Trial Court Judge: Jerri Bryant, Chancellor
The first issue presented by this appeal is whether there is evidence to support a finding of permanent impairment of pulmonary function as a result of the migration to the lung of an embolus from a clot created as a result of an injury to the plaintiff's lower extremity. If there is such evidence, the next issue is whether there can be a disability rating to the body as a whole where there is an injury to a scheduled member. After a close review of the record and consideration of the arguments of counsel, we believe that the evidence supports only a finding of a possible future injury to the lung from another embolus from the clot, rather than a present permanent injury. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further findings. Because of the conclusion on the first issue, we do not reach the second.The first issue presented by this appeal is whether there is evidence to support a finding of permanent impairment of pulmonary function as a result of the migration to the lung of an embolus from a clot created as a result of an injury to the plaintiff's lower extremity.
