No. 27864-CA.

666 So.2d 1246 (1996)

Charles Roger SMITH, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. FRUEHAUF TRAILER OPERATIONS, Defendant-Appellant.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Second Circuit.

January 24, 1996.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mayer, Smith & Roberts by Alex S. Lyons, Shreveport, for Defendant-Appellant.

A. Michael Boggs, Bossier City, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

Before MARVIN, NORRIS and STEWART, JJ.


NORRIS, Judge.

Fruehauf Trailer Operation and its insurer, Transportation Insurance Company, appeal the hearing officer's rulings that Charles Smith's claim had not prescribed, that his disability is related to his on-the-job injury at Fruehauf, and the failure to give credit for the disability payments Fruehauf funded. Finding that Smith's claim for weekly and medical benefits had prescribed, we reverse and render.
