Jesse Ray Brown v. The Pepsi Bottling Group, INc. and Old Republic Insurance Company ( 2007 )

COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: Judges Kelsey, Petty and Senior Judge Bumgardner
JESSE RAY BROWN
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. Record No. 1206-07-3 PER CURIAM
SEPTEMBER 25, 2007
THE PEPSI BOTTLING GROUP, INC. AND
OLD REPUBLIC INSURANCE COMPANY
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Stephen G. Bass; Carter Craig, on brief), for appellant.
(Dale W. Webb; Roberta A. Paluck; Frankl Miller & Webb, on
brief), for appellees.
Jesse Ray Brown appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission
suspending his award of temporary total disability benefits on the ground that he unjustifiably
refused medical treatment. 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 Brown v. The Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc., VWC File No.
209-73-44 (May 1, 2007). 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.
