WIGELIA WHITE v. FEDERAL EXPRESS CORP., ET AL.

Posted by: Azya Thornton on May 11, 2026

Court: TN Workers Comp Appeals Board

Attorneys 1: Wigelia White, employee-appellant, pro se.

Attorneys 2: Joseph B. Baker, Memphis, Tennessee, for the employer-appellee, Federal Express Corp.

Judge(s): CONNER

The employee alleged she injured her low back, left hip, and related anatomy while moving heavy mail bags at work. At trial, the employer argued that the employee failed to provide adequate notice of any alleged work-related accident and failed to come forward with sufficient proof that her condition was primarily caused by that alleged incident. The trial court agreed with the employer on both counts and denied the employee’s claim, and the employee has appealed. Having carefully reviewed the record, we affirm the trial court’s order and certify it as final for purposes of any further appeal.
