The Connecticut Appellate Court held the Workers’ Compensation Commission cannot grant temporary partial disability payments to someone who has “reached maximum medical improvement”, clarifying the interpretation of Connecticut General Statutes § 31-308 (a).
The decision stemmed from a workers’ compensation case in which the plaintiff, Beulah Gardner, appealed the the Compensation Review Board’s decision upholding the Workers’ Compensation Commission’s denial of her “claim for ongoing temporary partial disability,” the opinion said.
