Description

MEMORANDUM OPINION 1 Claimant, Bob Bodine, filed a claim for workers' compensation for injuries resulting in hearing loss alleged
to have arisen from exposure to noise in the course of his employment with Crane Carrier. The claim was filed on April 29,
1986. Claimant continued to be employed by Crane Carrier through the trial of the matter on November 10, 1986. Employer Crane
Carrier raised a statute of limitations defense. During the course of the trial claimant testified that he had noticed his
hearing loss six or seven years prior to trial and had attributed it to his employment at that time. Claimant also testified
that he had been told about his hearing loss and counseled to do something about it by a nurse at Crane Carrier. The trial
court found that on the basis of this testimony the claim had been barred by the statute of limitations. This ruling was upheld
by the workers' compensation court en banc. Claimant has brought this proceeding seeking review of the denial of his claim.
