Huffman alleged a psychological injury from a 2015 work accident that, combined with pre-existing conditions, rendered her permanently and totally disabled. The Commission affirmed the Administrative Law Judge's denial, finding Huffman failed to establish a psychological disability related to the work injury. The appellate court affirmed, concluding there was sufficient competent evidence in the record to support the Commission's determination.","primaryTopic":"workers-compensation","topicSlugs":["workers-compensation","appellate-procedure","evidence","administrative-law"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=208173","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/norma-huffman-v-treasurer-of-the-state-of-missouri-custodian-of-the-secon-d86436","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"personal-injury","label":"Personal Injury","href":"/practice-areas/personal-injury","score":20,"source":"tag","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/personal-injury"},{"slug":"workers-compensation","label":"Workers' Compensation","href":"/practice-areas/workers-compensation","score":16,"source":"topic","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/workers-compensation"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
