Catherine Mayo v. Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Co.
02S01-9807-CH-00076
This workers' compensation appeal has been referred to the Special Workers' Compensation Appeals Panel of the Supreme Court in accordance with Tenn. Code Ann. _ 5-6-225(e)(3) for hearing and reporting to the Supreme Court of findings of fact and conclusions of law. On or about August 24, 1993, the plaintiff, Catherine Mayo, was engaged in her regular employment duties as manager for Pizza Hut, when she suffered total permanent disabling injuries. An armed robber inflicted a massive shotgun blast to the plaintiff's entire abdomen. On August 11, 1997, the plaintiff filed a Petition for Approval of Final and Lump Sum Settlement under the Workers' Compensation Law. The trial court entered an order approving the final and cash lump sum settlement, awarding total permanent disability benefits at the maximum rate of recovery through age 65 pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. _ 5-6-27, and lifetime future medical expenses. However, judgment was reserved for a later determination by the trial court on the issue of the medical provision of a heated hydrotherapy pool to be installed at the plaintiff's residence. Prior to May 11, 1998, the plaintiff submitted to the trial court medical reports of two physicians in support of her request for an in-home hydrotherapy pool. On May 11, 1998, the trial court considered the merits of plaintiff's motion. On June 29, 1998, the trial court entered an order denying the request for the medical apparatus, more specifically described as the in-ground heated hydrotherapy pool. Since the plaintiff is making a most unusual request that the defendant install an in- ground hydrotherapy pool at her residence as a medical apparatus that is medically necessary, it is beneficial to set forth the underlying facts of this request. At the time of this unfortunate event, the plaintiff, age 47, was a resident of Jackson, Tennessee, but now resides in Buffalo, New York, where she has family support. The shotgun blast injured the plaintiff's chest, solar plexus, abdomen, abdominal wall, and side. Dr. Joseph Spychalski, the treating physician, found that the plaintiff sustained a complete obliteration of the anterior abdominal musculature, and that, as a consequence, she lacks the ability to efficiently sit, transfer, ambulate, bend, or lift. The plaintiff will require lifelong physical therapy to maintain her back muscles and range of motion. Due to the shotgun blast, the 2

Jenny C. Walker vs. James M. Walker
M2001-00087-COA-R3-CV
After the parties separated, the husband borrowed a substantial amount of money to complete the renovation of marital property and to pay household expenses. The trial court divided the marital property pursuant to divorce, classifying the husband's post-separation loans as marital debt. The wife argues on appeal that the trial court erred in its classification and division of the post-separation debts. We affirm the trial court.
