Camacho v. INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION OF UTAH
225 P.2d 728
Utah
1950
Check Treatment
PER CURIAM.

*182 Certiorari to review an order of the Industrial Commission denying the petitioner compensation for permanent partial disability.

Petitioner was injured while employed by Kennecott Copper Company, as a trackman. While moving railroad ties, he slipped and fell against a stack of ties, injuring his back. He had a tubercular arthritis condition of the bone of the left shoulder, which it is contended had been quiescent, but which was lighted up and became active as a result of the injury, and in consequence the use and movement of the shoulder was partially permanently destroyed. The Commission found that the disability complained of existed prior to the injury, and denied an award of compensation. It is contended that the evidence fails to support the denial of an award.

If there is competent evidence of a substantial character to sustain the findings of the Commission, they will not be disturbed. Stoddard v.

Industrial Commission, 90 Utah 256, 61 P. 2d 413.

The facts of this case are not unique so as to be of special interest, and no worthwhile purpose would be served in detailing the evidence herein. We have reviewed the *183 evidence, and we find that there is substantial competent evidence to support the Commission’s finding. Accordingly, the order of the Industrial Commission is affirmed.
