Max Jones
Max Jones represented the Employer/Insurer in a worker’s compensation matter. Worker claimed that he was injured while lifting bales of hay for the Employer. There was no report of injury until after Worker was terminated from employment almost 3 months after the alleged injury occurred. Prior to trial, we submitted a motion for summary judgment asserting that Worker could not meet his burden of proof in the case. The motion was denied, but was renewed along with a Rule 50 motion for judgment as a matter of law after Worker’s close of his case. The judge’s verdict was in favor of Employer/Insurer denying compensability of all Worker’s claims.
