MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. Record No. 0434-14-3 PER CURIAM
JUNE 24, 2014
RONALD R. LANDES
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Brandi R. Howell; Franklin & Prokopik, P.C., on brief), for
appellants.
(Amber H. Russo; HammondTownsend, PLC, on brief), for
appellee.
Lowe’s Home Companies, Inc., and its insurer (appellants) appeal a decision of the
Workers’ Compensation Commission finding that Ronald R. Landes suffered compensable
injuries arising out of his employment and that the injury to his knee materially aggravated a
pre-existing condition. 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 Landes v. Lowe’s Home Ctrs., Inc., VWC File No. JCN VA00000771689
(Feb. 7, 2014). 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.
