FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Mary L. Battle, pro se, on brief).

Mary L. Battle appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission finding
that Battle’s claim for temporary total disability benefits is barred by the statute of limitations.1

authority to support her arguments. Therefore, the Court will not consider these issues. Rule
5A:20; see Ohree v. Commonwealth, 26 Va. App. 299, 308, 494 S.E.2d 484, 489 (1998) (“there
is no ruling for us to review on appeal”).

award from either the date compensation was last paid pursuant to the award or pursuant to
subsection C [of Code § 65.2-708]”). We dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm
because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court
and argument would not aid the decisional process.3 See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
