COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: Judges Frank, McClanahan and Senior Judge Willis
GEORGE HUGGETT
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. Record No. 0757-07-1 PER CURIAM
AUGUST 14, 2007
QUALITY CARPENTERS, INC. AND
COMMONWEALTH CONTRACTORS GROUP
SELF-INSURANCE ASSOCIATION
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Stephen F. Forbes; Forbes and Broadwell, on briefs), for appellant.
(George J. Dancigers; Deborah B. Vaughn; McKenry, Dancigers,
Dawson & Lake, P.C., on brief), for appellees.
George Huggett appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission finding
that his injury sustained in a motor vehicle accident on January 21, 2005 did not arise out of and
in the course of his employment as he failed to prove an exception to the going and coming rule.
We have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is without
merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See
Huggett v. Quality Carpenters, Inc., VWC File No. 223-93-67 (Mar. 7, 2007). 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.
See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
Affirmed.
