Description
1 Two issues are presented: 1) whether a worker who has received an out-of-state workers compensation award for permanent disability qualifies as a previously impaired person under 85 O.S.Supp. 1986 § 171 ; and 2) whether excluding out-of-state prior adjudications is unconstitutional. We find that: 1) pursuant to 85 O.S.Supp. 1986, recodified as 85 O.S. 1991 § 171, a worker who has received an out-of-state workers compensation award for permanent disability does not qualify as a previously impaired person; and 2) excluding out-of-state workers compensation awards in the determination of an employees status as a previously impaired person is not unconstitutional.
