ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Ray Volk ("Claimant") appeals from the decision of the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission ("the Commission") denying him disability benefits following the conclusion of his employment with Chrysler, LLC ("Employer"). Claimant argues the Commission erred in discounting his testimony and that of his medical expert and that Claimant proffered substantial, competent evidence linking his work activities to his resulting carpal tunnel syndrome.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and find no error of law. No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order.

The judgment is affirmed pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
