RE: Claim Number 22-099-0000833 Date Of Loss 7/4/00
As you are aware, on 8/12/02 our workers' compensation attorney mediated claim
number 22-099-0000833. Opening demand from opposing council was in the amount of
$422,795.11. After several hours a settlement was reached in the amount of $45,000.00.
One additional condition of settlement was that the County waive the lien that they had
against the claimant for any settlement he/she might make as a result of this workers'
compensation injury that resulted from a moving vehicle accident.
If you need additional information or wish to discuss this matter further, please feel free
to contact me at ext. 4449.
