Lemke, State ex rel. v. Brush Wellman, Inc. (12/16/98)

For a more detailed summary, click here. Note: This decision has been overruled by State, ex rel. Stevens v. Indus. Comm. (7/19/06).

Vote: 7-0
Opinion by: Lanzinger
Stevens, State ex rel. v. Indus. Comm. (7/19/06)
"Special circumstances" provision of R.C. 4123.61 does not justify recalculating the average weekly wage for an injured worker who continues to work after injury and whose wages have increased over time.
Vote: 5-2
Opinion by: Per Curiam
