17 Kan. App. 2d 185 (1992)

836 P.2d 19

LEO J. MINER, Appellant, v. M. BRUENGER & COMPANY, INC.; TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY; and/or KANSAS WORKERS COMPENSATION FUND, Appellees.

Court of Appeals of Kansas.

Opinion filed June 26, 1992.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Laura B. Shaneyfelt, of Wichita, and Fred A. Johnson, of Busch, Johnson, Wirth & Mank, of Wichita, for appellant.

William P. Tretbar, of Fleeson, Gooing, Coulson & Kitch, of Wichita, for appellees M. Bruenger & Co. and Travelers Insurance Company.

Edward D. Heath, Jr., of Wichita, for appellee Kansas Workers Compensation Fund.

Before PIERRON, P.J., Gernon, J., and DONALD L. WHITE, District Judge Retired, assigned.


GERNON, J.:

This is a workers compensation appeal. The trial court ruled that Leo J. Miner had a 30% permanent partial general bodily disability. The court also computed the amount of credit the Workers Compensation Fund (Fund) was entitled to receive pursuant to K.S.A. 44-510a, which provides for a reduction in compensation for prior compensable permanent injuries when a second injury which is compensable occurs. Miner appeals both rulings. We affirm.
