Description
Claimant Larry Kincaid (Kincaid) appeals from a compensation order awarding him benefits for 10% permanent partial disability, contending that he should have been awarded benefits for permanent total disability. Kincaid was injured on April 7, 1987. Due to the date of the accident, this case arises under transient provisions of the Workmen's Compensation Act. See NMSA 1978, §§ 52-1-1 to -68 (Orig. Pamp. & Cum. Supp. 1986) (Interim Act). This appeal is another in a series of cases arising under the Interim Act and presenting this court with a question concerning the meaning of permanent total disability under that Act. See Varela v. Arizona Pub. Serv., 109 N.M. 306, 784 P.2d 1049 (Ct. App. 1989) (No. 11,259), cert. applied for December 4, 1989; Barela v. Midcon of N.M., Inc., 109 N.M. 360, 785 P.2d 271 (Ct. App. 1989), cert. applied for November 27, 1989. In this case, the dispositive issue is whether the hearing officer properly applied the definition of "comparable wage" under Section 52-1-24(A). We affirm.
