Case Summary

S-16-0932, Lori Greenwood (Appellant) v. J.J. Hooligan’s, LLC, f/k/a, Pies and Pints, LLC, and FirstComp Ins. Co.

Workers’ Compensation Court, Judge Thomas E. Stine

Attorneys: Rolf Edward Shasteen (Shasteen & Morris, P.C., L.L.O.)(Appellant) --- L. Tyler Laflin & Joshua R. Woolf (Engles, Ketcham, Olson & Keith, P.C.) (Appellee FirstComp)

Civil: Compensability of injury

Proceedings below: The trial court dismissed Appellee as a defendant in the case.

Issues: The trial court erred in (1) finding that Appellee met its burden of proving that it had complied with the notification requirements of Neb. Rev. Stat. §48-144.03, and 2) finding that Appellee was not the workers’ compensation insurance carrier for Appellee on January 12, 2012, and thus not liable for workers’ compensation benefits to Appellant.
