Anna Redfern, Joseph Pastaleniec and Walter L. Legut suffered work-related injuries, and compensation for general disability was paid.

In these cases, consolidated on appeal, the workers asserted that as a consequence of their physical injuries they suffered mental illness or cognitive loss constituting "incurable insanity or imbecility" and, therefore, additional compensation should be paid for "total and permanent disability".
