Description

Published opinion Plaintiff sustained an injury by accident in the course of his employment with Defendant on 20 May 2002. Plaintiff's claim was accepted as compensable pursuant to a Form 60 agreement dated 6 June 2002. Plaintiff was treated and evaluated for his injuries between 20 May 2002 and 12 November 2003. Plaintiff was released to return to sedentary work on 5 November 2002, and reached maximum medical improvement on 17 December 2002, with permanent restrictions that consisted of: (1) no ladder climbing, (2) no standing or walking over thirty minutes per hour, and (3) limited work on uneven surfaces. Plaintiff received temporary totaldisability benefits from Defendant from 21 May 2002 until 5 November 2002. Plaintiff worked for Defendant in a sedentary position from 6 November 2002 until 31 January 2003. Plaintiff and Defendant disputed whether Plaintiff was entitled to disability benefits for the period from 1 February 2003 to 3 April 2004. Plaintiff and Defendant entered into a partial compromise settlement agreement on 5 January 2004, whereby Defendant agreed to pay Plaintiff a lump sum reimbursement for benefits and all disputed expenses for the period from 1 February 2003 through 31 October 2003, and further agreed to reinstate temporary total disability compensation from 1 November 2003 by filing a Form 62, which it did on 6 April 2004. Plaintiff agreed to cooperate with all vocational efforts offered by Defendant, and further agreed that failure to cooperate with the vocational efforts would subject Plaintiff to suspension or termination of temporary total disability benefits. Deputy Commissioner Edward Garner, Jr. issued an order approving this agreement on 8 March 2004. Defendant paid all disability benefits owed Plaintiff from the period between 1 November 2003 and the entry of the opinion and award of the Full Commission on 27 August 2007. In its opinion and award, the Full Commission found as fact, inter alia, the following: ""Plaintiff was employed by [D]efendant as a real estate appraiser from 1985 until May 20, 2002. The job required an ability to make mathematical calculations and considerable analytical skills. Plaintiff received good employment reviews from his supervisors and several merit raises."" Plaintiff workedsedentary employment with Defendant from 6 November 2002 until 31 January 2003, and never complained that his disability caused him any difficulties in performing that job. Two doctors, one on 5 November 2002 and one on 28 February 2003, advised that Plaintiff could perform sedentary work. The Full Commission also found that ""plaintiff has not made reasonable efforts to find employment and there is insufficient evidence to show by the greater weight that it would be futile for [P]laintiff to seek employment . . . .""
