Ind. Decisions - Another NFP COA decision reclassified

The case is Josif Obetkovski v. Inland Steel Industries - NFP opinion issued 7/7/09; Appellee's motion for publication filed 7/14/09 but missing certificate of service; defect cured 7/23/09; Appellant's petition for transfer 8/5/09; Ordered published 8/10/09.

From Sr. Judge Hoffman's opinion:

Based upon the foregoing discussion and authorities, we conclude that the Board did not err in finding that Obetkovski failed to give Inland notice of the alleged work-relatedness of his injury and that this failure prejudiced Inland. In addition, there is ample evidence to support the Board’s conclusion that Obetkovski did not suffer a compensable injury in the course and scope of his employment with Inland.
