Before DOUCET, YELVERTON and KNOLL, JJ.


KNOLL, Judge.

This is a workmen's compensation suit wherein Jerry L. George alleges that he is totally and permanently disabled as a result of a back injury he sustained on November 26, 1979, while working for Marcantel Feed Stores. The trial court found that Mr. George's back injury was not job related; that his injury resulted from an intervening cause, namely a second accident. Mr. George has perfected this appeal. We reverse.
