State ex rel. Kabealo v. Indus. Comm

In State ex rel. Kabealo v. Indus. Comm. (Mar. 8, 1990), Franklin App. No. 88AP-33, 1990 Ohio App, the claimant's right index finger was smashed at its tip by an automatic tie-rod assembler machine. The commission denied the claimant's motion for a scheduled-loss award noting that medical evidence from claimant's own physician indicated that only a portion of the flesh and nail bed of the distal phalanx had been amputated. As such, the Court denied the claimant's request for a writ of mandamus.
