Opinion

No. 42588.

July 9, 1971.

Workmen's compensation — review — finding injury arose out of employment.

Certiorari upon the relation of the Church of St. Joseph, employer, and Great Northern Insurance Company, its insurer, to review a decision of the Workmen's Compensation Commission awarding compensation to the Reverend Jerome J. Strei, employee. Affirmed.

Jardine, Logan O'Brien and Jon L. Levy, for relators.

Thomas W. Walsh, for respondent.

Heard before Knutson, C. J., and Nelson, Otis, Rogosheske, and Kelly, JJ.


Certiorari to review a decision of the Workmen's Compensation Commission awarding medical expenses to an employee. The commission found from the testimony of the only medical expert that the employee sustained a personal injury arising out of and in the course of his employment. Relators contend that employee's injury did not arise out of his employment.

Because we cannot hold that the determinative finding that employee's injury arose out of his employment is unsupported by substantial evidence in view of the entire record as submitted, we affirm.

See Minn. St. 15.0425 (e), which is synonymous with this court's previous enunciations of the scope of review of decisions of the Workmen's Compensation Commission, collected in 21 Dunnell, Dig. (3 ed.) § 10426.

Affirmed.
