Clifton Lee Burns, Jr. v. Northrop Grumman Corporation ( 2008 )

COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: Chief Judge Felton, Judge Petty and Senior Judge Bumgardner
CLIFTON LEE BURNS, JR.
MEMORANDUM OPINION *
v. Record No. 1240-08-1 PER CURIAM
SEPTEMBER 16, 2008
NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION AND
INSURANCE COMPANY OF THE STATE
OF PENNSYLVANIA/AIG DOMESTIC CLAIMS, INC.
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Gary R. West, on brief), for appellant.
(Adam S. Rafal; Lisa L. Thatch; Vandeventer Black LLP, on brief),
for appellees.
Clifton Lee Burns, Jr. appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission
finding that he failed to prove his right lateral epicondylitis constituted a compensable
occupational disease or ordinary disease of life. We have reviewed the record and the
commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the
reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Burns v. Northrop Grumman Corp.,
VWC File No. 228-09-09 (April 28, 2008). We dispense with oral argument and summarily
affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
Affirmed.
