Description
This is an appeal from an order of the Industrial Accident Board denying claimant-employee (hereinafter referred to as appellant), Riley C. Gregg, workmen's compensation benefits for alleged back injury and resulting mental disability purportedly suffered in an accident while working for Orr Roofing & Building Supply, respondent. He is presently confined to the psychiatric ward of the Veterans' Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah, and has been so committed since December 29, 1964. His condition is diagnosed as paranoid schizophrenia, and now at age 50 his prognosis is poor. Appellant alleges that he suffered permanently disabling back injuries when a tar kettle he was tending exploded and threw him upon his back. Subsequently, as a result of being laid up and out of work, he began to experience severe emotional and mental disturbances which culminated in a complete mental breakdown and his eventual commitment and confinement to the mental ward of the Veterans' Hospital in Salt Lake.
