mechanism. The Hearing Officer fails to find that the DISC PROTRUSION AT L3-4

Officer relies on Dr. Schlonsky's 10/24/2010 report in which Dr. Schlonsky
indicates the abnormal disc at L3-4 was not present on the 2001 MRI. He further
opines that there is no relationship between this condition and the industrial
injury. The Hearing Officer also relies upon Dr. Schlonsky's 11/29/2010
report. Dr. Schlonsky opines that there is no evidence that the Injured worker
suffers from symptoms from his L3-4 biforaminal stenosis. In addition, Dr.
Schlonsky indicates that this condition should not be additionally allowed via
flow-through,

total compensation from 01/06/2010 through 06/07/2010 closed period as the

is denied. The Hearing Officer fails to find that the Injured Worker was
rendered temporarily and totally disabled due to the allowed conditions of this
claim for this time period. the Hearing officer relies upon Dr. Schlonsky's
10/24/2010 and 11/29/2010 reports.
