    •    News / Updates

    June 3, 2009: The First District Court of Appeal agreed with Mr. Schwartz and reversed a judge's ruling that denied an injured worker all future benefits and taxed costs against her. In its written opinion, the 1st DCA stated that the judge misinterpreted and misapplied the rule of major contributing cause and separately improperly rejected the defense of res judicata, which, if applied, would have prevented the Employer/Carrier from denying previously awarded medical benefits.
