Tynes v. Gaylord Container Corp.2/14/2003 Gosey was never asked to consider whether Mr. Tynes would be able to return to any other job at Gaylord or with any other employer. Rather, in his July 10, 2001 deposition, Dr. Gosey simply stated that if there was a job that fell within the physical restrictions that he had outlined for Mr. Tynes, then he would release Mr. Tynes to return to work. At no time before this did Dr. Gosey release Mr. Tynes to return to work in any capacity. Conversion of Mr. Tynes' benefits from TTDs to SEBs by Gaylord was arbitrary, thus warranting an award of attorney fees and penalties.
CONCLUSION
Having thoroughly reviewed the instant record, we find no error in the judgment of the workers' compensation judge. Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed in all respects. All costs associated with this appeal are assessed against defendant-appellant, Gaylord Container Corporation.
AFFIRMED.
