MEMORANDUM OPINION *
v. Record No. 0023-13-3 PER CURIAM
MAY 7, 2013
EURA DENNIS ROBERTS
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(S. Vernon Priddy III; Michael L. Goff, Jr.; Two Rivers Law Group,
P.C., on briefs), for appellants.
(John J. Gifford; Browning, Lamie & Gifford, P.C., on brief), for
appellee.
C&R Coal Company and Old Republic Insurance Company (appellants) appeal a
decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission (commission) finding Roberts’ claim for
medical treatment is not barred by Code § 65.2-708. Appellants contend the commission erred
in: (1) refusing to reconsider its review opinion; (2) applying Prophet v. Bullock Corp., 59
Va. App. 313, 718 S.E.2d 478 (2011), rather than following prior decisions from the Court of
Appeals; and (3) failing to recognize Prophet was wrongly decided.
We have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is
without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reason stated by the commission in its final
opinion. See Roberts v. C&R Coal Co., JCN 121-06-28 (Dec. 3, 2012). We dispense with oral
argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented
