Description
In this workers' compensation case, an arbitrator found that claimant, Dennis Berry, suffered accidental injuries while employed by the A.O. Smith Corporation and awarded him medical payments, a sum representing 44 weeks of temporary total disability, and compensation for permanent loss of 5% of the man under the Workers' Compensation Act (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1979, ch. 48, par. 138.1 et seq.). On review, without taking additional evidence, the Industrial Commission reversed the arbitrator's award, finding that the claimant had failed to prove that the accident caused any temporary or permanent disability, or need for medical care. The circuit court of Madison County set aside the Commission's decision as against the manifest weight of the evidence and ordered that the claimant have judgment against the [employer] in the amounts stated in the arbitrator's decision, together with all taxable interest, costs and fees. The employer appealed under our Rule 302(a) (87 Ill.2d R. 302(a)).
