Court of Civil Appeals of Alabama July 3, 1985, Civ. 4738 (Erwin v. Harris)

This is a workmen's compensation case. The claimant appeals from the trial court's denial of further medical benefits for an off-the-job injury to a knee. The claimant had received workmen's compensation and medical benefits for a prior, compensable injury to the knee. In May 1982, the claimant sustained an injury to his left knee when the riding lawn mower that he was operating overturned.
