Opinion

No. 42632.

October 8, 1971.

Workmen's compensation — denial of compensation — claimed combination of previous disability with work-related injury.

Certiorari upon the relation of Jenny Sebby, employee, to review a decision of the Workmen's Compensation Commission denying her claim against the state treasurer, custodian of the special compensation fund, for compensation for disability allegedly caused by combination of a previous disability with an injury for which she had been compensated by Libby, McNeill Libby, employer, and Security Mutual Casualty Company, its insurer. Affirmed.

Wallace C. Sieh, for relator.

Warren Spannaus, Attorney General, Jerome Truhn, Solicitor General, and Winston Ehlmann, Special Assistant Attorney General, for respondent state treasurer.

Heard before Knutson, C. J., and Murphy, Peterson, Kelly, and Odden, JJ.


Certiorari to review a decision of the Workmen's Compensation Commission which denied employee's claim that her neurotic condition was a previous disability which combined with her work-related injury to produce permanent and total disability.

The commission's decision in this particular case that employee's neurotic condition did not combine with her work-related injury to cause permanent and total disability is supported by substantial evidence in view of the entire record as submitted. We affirm the commission's decision. Our affirmance of this issue is determinative of all other contentions raised by appellant.

Affirmed.
