  1. Barr v. Conoco Chemicals, Inc.

    412 So. 2d 1193 (Miss. 1982)   Cited 6 times

    Graeber Bros., Inc. quoted numerous cases from other jurisdictions wherein the same holding was expressed. Trehern v. Grafe Auto Co., 232 Miss. 854, 100 So.2d 786 (1958) stated: It is our opinion that the legislature of Mississippi intended to put some limit on the time when a claim for medical benefits could be filed and it seems reasonable to us that they intended to put the same limit as they did put on a claim for compensation. Under this view the judgment of the lower court must be affirmed. If the Legislature intended to put a different period of limitation on the recovery of medical expenses, they should amend the compensation act and put such period on it as they think is fair and just. [232 Miss. at 859-860; 100 So.2d at 788-789].

  2. Speed Mechanical, Inc. v. Taylor

    342 So. 2d 317 (Miss. 1977)   Cited 9 times
    In Speed, at 320, we noted that there were not latent or unknown aspects to Taylor's injury. Taylor had received serious mouth injuries more than two years prior to filing for workmen's compensation benefits under the statute.

    Ingalls Shipbuilding Corp. v. Byrd, 215 Miss. 234, 60 So.2d 645 (1952), held an employee's claim for medical expenses barred by his failure to seek payment as required by the statute. Language in Trehern v. Grafe Auto Co., 232 Miss. 854, 100 So.2d 786 (1958), is pertinent: Section 6998-18 [now Β§ 71-3-35] in paragraph (a) puts a limitation of two years on all claims, but nowhere in the compensation act is there any specific limitation on claims for medical benefits.

    In Gibbs v. Bass, 237 Miss. 823, 116 So.2d 542 (1959), claimant was permanently and totally disabled, requiring medical treatment for the remainder of his life. He petitioned the Commission for an adjudication of his right to receive medical attention for such period as the nature of the injury may require.

    Arrington Arrington, Hazlehurst, for appellant. I. The court below erred in dismissing appellant's claim and in failing to find and adjudicate that the appellant was entitled to the medical benefits provided for by the Mississippi Workmen's Compensation Act for the balance of his natural life, insofar as medical expenses to be incurred by him were occasioned by the injury he received on December 9th, 1949, which was a compensable injury under the Mississippi Workmen's Compensation Act; and in failing to order the appellees to pay any and all future medical expenses incurred by appellant, occasioned by the injury he received on December the 9th, 1949.

    Although it is true that an employer's remittance of compensation payments tolls the statute of limitations, see Parchman v. Amwood Products, 988 So.2d 346, 351 (Miss. 2008), history has brought to our courthouses cases in which confusion has arisen over whether given sets of payments qualified as true compensation, id., or even whether a particular payment was actually a payment at all. See Trehern v. Grafe Auto Co., 232 Miss. 854, 100 So.2d 786 (1958). ΒΆ 15.
