ORDER
PER CURIAM
Dresser-Rand Company ("Employer") appeals the Final Award of the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission ("Commission") affirming and adopting the default award of the Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") finding Employer liable for Charles Kinney’s ("Claimant") work-related injury and awarding Claimant temporary total disability, permanent total disability, and past medical expenses. We affirm.
We have reviewed the briefs of the parties, the legal file, and the record on appeal and find the claims of error to be without merit. No error of law appears. An extended opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating the principles of law applicable to this case would serve no jurisprudential or precedential purpose. We have, however, provided a memorandum opinion for the use of the parties setting forth the reasons for our decision. We affirm the Judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
