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 March 26, 2003. The hearing officer resolved the disputed issue by deciding that the appellant’s (claimant) compensable injury of ______________, does not extend to and include the diagnosed lumbar “IVD” syndrome, radiculitis, and sacroiliitis, after May 22, 2002. The claimant appealed and the respondent (carrier) responded.
DECISION
Affirmed.
The disputed issue presented a fact question for the hearing officer to resolve from the evidence presented. The hearing officer is the sole judge of the weight and credibility of the evidence. Section 410.165(a). As the finder of fact, the hearing officer resolves the conflicts in the evidence and determines what facts have been established. We conclude that the hearing officer’s decision is not so against the great weight and preponderance of the evidence as to be clearly wrong and unjust. Cain v. Bain, 709 S.W.2d 175 (Tex. 1986).
We affirm the hearing officer’s decision and order.
The true corporate name of the insurance carrier is ONE BEACON INSURANCE COMPANY and the name and address of its registered agent for service of process is
