12 hours after the last episode published, the Court of Appeals came out with its revised decision in Sturdivant. The verdict? The 500-week cap on indemnity benefits is gone. I will discuss this decision and take a deep dive into what is actually left of the alleged pro-employer amendments that were made to the Act in 2011. I will also discuss what a veto-proof General Assembly can do to immediately address the problems that have arisen since those amendments were enacted 12 years ago.
