Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Sarah Crane, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Mullins, P.J., Bower, J., and Scott, S.J. Opinion by Scott, S.J. (8 pages)
An employer appeals the district court decision affirming the award of healing period benefits by the workers’ compensation commissioner. OPINION HOLDS: We find there is substantial evidence in the record to support a finding the employee came within the personal-vehicle exception to the coming-and-going rule and was not engaged in a deviation from the course of employment at the time of the accident. We affirm the district court and the workers’ compensation commissioner.
