Gary R. Slone v. Woodcraft Manufacturing, Inc.,

This workers’ compensation appeal has been referred to the Special Workers’ Compensation
Appeals Panel of the Tennessee Supreme Court in accordance with Tennessee Code Annotated
section 50-6-225(e)(3) for hearing and reporting to the Supreme Court of findings of fact and
conclusions of law. The trial court awarded Plaintiff 100 percent permanent disability. On appeal,
Defendants contend the trial court erred in (1) finding Plaintiff’s stroke was work-related, (2) in
awarding Plaintiff 100 percent disability, and (3) in allowing medical expenses for treatment at the
VA Hospital. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
