Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
Workers' Compensation
Claimant bus driver was awarded TTD for psychological injuries sustained from having experienced fatal collision with pedestrian. Evidence was sufficient to support reasonable inference that claimant suffered sudden, severe emotional shock which caused psychological injury, and her claim may be compensable even if resulting psychological injury did not manifest itself until sometime after the shock. Failure to seek immediate professional help does not defeat claim. (HOFFMAN, HUDSON, and STEWART, concurring; TURNER, dissenting.)
