Record No. 0636-85.

341 S.E.2d 824 (1986)

Russell (Corrine) LOUNGEWEAR, et al. v. Esther GRAY.

Court of Appeals of Virginia.

Decided March 18, 1986.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John E. Kieffer (Woodward, Miles & Flannagan, P.C., Bristol, on brief), for appellants.

Larry Grant Browning (Browning, Morefield & Schelin, P.C., Lebanon, on brief), for appellee.

Present KOONTZ, C.J., and COLEMAN and MOON, JJ.


MOON, Judge.

The principle issue on this appeal by Russell (Corrine) Loungewear (employer) is whether Esther Gray, a sewing machine operator who sustained an acute back strain on the job, proved that she sustained an injury by accident arising from her employment. We affirm because there was credible evidence from which the Commission could have found that she proved a sudden, precipitous event on the job to which the back strain could be attributed.
