Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Prescott L. Barfield, Covington, for Plaintiff-Appellee Carl Crawford.

Travis R. LeBleu, Baton Rouge, for Defendants-Appellants Pontchartrain Materials, Inc. and Louisiana Workers' Compensation Corporation.

Before: PETTIGREW, DOWNING, and HUGHES, JJ.


PETTIGREW, J.

In this workers' compensation action, the parties dispute whether the claimant's present back complaints are the result of an employment-related accident. The employer and its insurer dispute that claimant's subsequent complaints of back pain stem from an accident on the job. The employer and the insurer now appeal from a judgment in favor of claimant awarding indemnity benefits and medical expenses together with penalties and attorney fees.
