Description
At issue in this case is the proper construction of two workers compensation statutes dealing with an employees right to collect supplemental earnings benefits ("SEB"). Louisiana Revised Statute 23:1209(A) provides that an employee may file a claim for SEB within three years of the date of the last indemnity benefit payment. Louisiana Revised Statute 23:1221(3)(d)(i), on the other hand, states that the right to SEB shall terminate at the end of any two-year period commencing after termination of temporary total disability payments ("TTD"), unless SEB has been payable for at least thirteen consecutive weeks. Plaintiff filed the current claim for SEB after two years, but before the expiration of three years, from the discontinuance of TTD; thus, her claim falls between the time periods set forth in the two statutes.
