Doe v. S.C. Department of Disabilities and Special Needs4/18/2005
was substantial evidence suggesting that other stressors in Claimant's life that were unrelated to work caused her mental injuries. Accordingly, we find the circuit court erred in reversing the decision of the Full Commission.
CONCLUSION
We find there was substantial evidence to support the Full Commission's findings that Claimant's mental claims did not result from extraordinary and unusual conditions of her employment. We hold any claim based upon a physical-mental injury must demonstrate that the physical injury caused or induced the mental injury and not that the mental injury was only temporally related. Therefore, we find there is substantial evidence to support the Full Commission's finding that her mental injury was not caused by the minor physical injuries she sustained. Accordingly, the decision of the circuit court is REVERSED.
KITTREDGE and WILLIAMS, JJ., concur.
