Not taken to civil court but filed a Workman’s Compensation claim.
That is a Worker’s Compensation case, not an issue for the courts. If you are injured at work, for any reason, you are entitled to payment for your medical costs plus lost wages.
this is complicated but the way the law works you have to file workmans comp claim. then after certain conditions are met you MAY be able to sue.
Typically, workers comp is an employee’s sole remedy.
Filing a claim for WC benefits is the exclusive remedy in all but
the rarest circumstance. Generally, your employer would have to be
without legal coverage for work injury to sue in civil/tort courts.
It would be helpful if you would provide your STATE… WC laws are
STATE SPECIFIC… answers you get on a message board are generic at
best. BTW… there are NO other persons who have suffered the same
injury, the same circumstance, nor would receive the same PD
rating, or award in any settlement. DOn’t make comparisions to what
other injured workers may have receivied. You’ll be sadly
disappointed.
