Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Workers' Compensation
There is sufficient evidence supporting Workers' Compensation Commission's finding that claimant's low back condition after April 2004 was not causally related to September 2004 workplace accident. Commission awarded claimant permanent disability of 10% loss of persona as a whole, which was not against manifest weight of evidence. Claimant's income from her side business should not be included in calculation of average weekly wage as it does not represent "wages" earned while working for employer. (HOLDRIDGE, HOFFMAN, HUDSON, and STEWART, concurring.)
