Supreme Court of Virginia.

June 7, 1996.

Present: All the Justices.

PER CURIAM.

We awarded an appeal in this case to review a judgment of the Court of Appeals of Virginia which held that an employee's workers' compensation claim is barred by the two-year statute of limitations contained in Code § 65.2-406(A)(5) because the employee became aware more than two years before his death and before his estate filed a claim with the Workers' Compensation Commission for death benefits that he suffered from an occupational disease.
