Amputation, Loss of Use Cases: Miscellaneous
(Supreme Court)
Click on the case name to read the decision on the
Ohio Supreme Court's web site. Decisions which adopt the
decision of a lower court or
Magistrate, or which decide a case based on a previous decision, are
excluded.
Medical evidence which indicated that injured worker had a functional
loss of use of the hand was internally inconsistent and did not support
award for loss of use because doctor only indicated 27% loss of
function in the hand.
