Jackson v. Southern Livestock Supply11/8/2002
was paid the same amount in wages after his injury as he was paid prior to the accident. Mr. Jackson was terminated in February of 1997. The only reason given by Mr. Jackson was that he was told by his employer that they "don't agree." Never did he indicate that his termination had any relation to his claim or injury. As a result, we find that this assignment of error lacks merit.
Mr. Jackson failed to file his claim within the time frame allowed under the law. Each prescriptive period as set out under La. R.S. 23:1209(A) has passed. As a result, we find that the OWC did not err in finding that Mr. Jackson's claim had prescribed.
CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reason, we find that the OWC correctly sustained the peremptory exception raising the objection of prescription filed by defendants, Southern Livestock and State Farm Fire and Casualty Company, and the OWC judgment is affirmed. Costs of this appeal are assessed to Emerson J. Jackson, Sr.
AFFIRMED.
