This appeal arises pursuant to the Texas Workers’ Compensation Act, TEX. LAB. CODE ANN. § 401.001 et seq. (1989 Act). A contested case hearing was held on February 26, 2001. The hearing officer determined that appellant (claimant) did not sustain a compensable injury and he did not have disability. Claimant appeals, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence to support the hearing officer’s determinations. Respondent (carrier) responds that the Appeals Panel should affirm the decision and order.
DECISION
We affirm.
We have reviewed the record and conclude that the issues involved fact questions for the hearing officer. The hearing officer reviewed the record and decided what facts were established. We conclude that the hearing officer’s determinations are not so against the great weight and preponderance of the evidence as to be clearly wrong or manifestly unjust. Cain v. Bain, 709 S.W.2d 175, 176 (Tex. 1986).
We affirm the hearing officer’s decision and order.
