Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Johnson County, Lars G. Anderson, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Mullins, P.J., Bower, J., and Danilson, S.J. Opinion by Danilson, S.J. (10 pages)
Ronald N. McDonald appeals from the district court’s judicial review ruling upholding the workers’ compensation commissioner’s denial of permanent disability benefits. OPINION HOLDS: Because we find no abuse of discretion in the commissioner’s evidentiary ruling and there is substantial evidence to support the commissioner’s determination that McDonald had not proved causation, we affirm the district court in upholding the commissioner’s findings.
