Deraas v. Workforce Safety and Insurance
No. 20070016
Per Curiam.
[¶1] Patricia Deraas appealed from a district court judgment affirming an order of Workforce Safety & Insurance (“WSI”) denying her further workers’ compensation benefits. Deraas argued she continues to suffer from compensable injuries and, therefore, WSI wrongfully denied her further benefits. WSI’s finding that Deraas did not continue to suffer from compensable injuries is supported by a preponderance of the evidence. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(5).
