MYRON ANDERSON v. 84 LUMBER COMPANY, ET AL.

Posted by: Azya Thornton on Dec 9, 2024

Court: TN Workers Comp Appeals Board

Attorneys 1: Myron Anderson, Somerville, Tennessee, employee-appellant, pro se.

Attorneys 2: Kenneth D. Veit and Kate M. Patton, Brentwood, Tennessee, for the employer-appellee, 84 Lumber Company.

Judge(s): CONNER

This interlocutory appeal concerns a discovery dispute. After reporting a wrist injury at work and receiving some authorized care, the employee filed a petition seeking additional medical treatment and temporary disability benefits. Thereafter, the employer served written discovery requests on the employee, to which he responded in part. The employer then filed a motion to compel discovery responses, arguing that the employee’s responses were deficient in certain ways. Following a status hearing during which this discovery dispute was discussed, the trial court entered an order granting, in part, the employer’s motion to compel discovery, and the employee has appealed. Upon consideration of the record, we affirm the trial court’s order and remand the case.
