Patricia M. GETSON v. WM BANCORP et al.

Court of Appeals of Maryland.

June 12, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John A. Schruefer, Jr. (Seigel, Tully & Furrer, on brief), Baltimore, for Petitioner.

John J. Coyle, Jr. (Hidey, Coyle & Monteleone, on brief), Cumberland, for Respondents.

Argued before BELL, C.J., ELDRIDGE, RODOWSKY, CHASANOW, KARWACKI and RAKER, JJ., and ROBERT C. MURPHY, J. (Retired, Specially Assigned).


RAKER, Judge.

In this workers' compensation case, the claimant suffered a compensable injury to her right shoulder when she slipped and fell on the ice in her employer's parking lot on February 4, 1993. The primary question we must decide in this case is whether a shoulder injury, which causes permanent partial disability, is an injury to the arm under Maryland Code (1991 Repl.Vol., 1996 Cum. Supp.) § 9-627(d)(1)(iii) of the Labor and Employment Article
