Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

May 5, 1993.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joseph Texada Dalrymple, Alexandria, for Mervin Johnson.

Michael Glenn Hodgkins, Lake Charles, for Petron Inc.

Before DOUCET, YELVERTON and COOKS, JJ.

YELVERTON, Judge.

Mervin Johnson, a truck driver, had a heart attack on the job and is totally and permanently disabled. He filed a claim for worker's compensation benefits and medical expenses. The administrative law judge denied the claim. Johnson appealed. We reverse. We find that the plaintiff had an accident which is compensable under the Worker's Compensation Law, and we remand to the trial court for a determination of the amount of benefits payable.
