APD 020488

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 January 22, 2002. The hearing officer determined that the respondent (claimant) sustained a compensable injury on ___________, and had disability from September 16, 2001, through the date of the hearing. The appellant (self-insured) contends on appeal that these determinations are against the great weight and preponderance of the evidence. The appeal file contains no response from the claimant.

DECISION

Affirmed.

We have reviewed the matters complained of by the self-insured in its appeal and conclude that the hearing officer’s decision is 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).

The decision and order of the hearing officer are affirmed.

The true corporate name of the self-insured is (SELF-INSURED) and the name and address of its registered agent for service of process is
