James Apone, Appellant v. Fred Meyer, Inc., Appellee

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the denial of Apone’s workers’ compensation claim. It held that the Board properly limited and weighed his experts’ testimony, that substantial evidence supported the finding that his illness was not work-related, and that the Board adequately assisted him as a self-represented claimant. The court also held that several additional arguments were waived or inadequately briefed.
