Description
The debate in this case is over the sufficiency of the evidence to support an award of benefits for a fatal heart attack sustained by Sherman Harris (Harris). Upon our reversal of an order of the district court remanding the case to the hearing examiner for the taking of additional evidence, Matter of Harris, 900 P.2d 1163 (Wyo. 1995), the case was remanded for review of the original decision of the hearing examiner. The hearing examiners decision had awarded benefits to Harris, and upon our remand, the decision was affirmed by the district court. This appeal challenges the sufficiency of the evidence in light of the standards articulated in WYO. STAT. Γ§ 27-14-603(b) (1991), as construed by our decisions. We hold that the evidence is sufficient to satisfy the statutory standards as interpreted in our prior decisions. The ruling of the district court articulated in its Decision Letter, in which it affirmed the Order Awarding Benefits, is affirmed.
