261 P. 941 | Okla. | 1927
This is an original proceeding in this court to review an award of the State Industrial Commission. Same was filed herein on June 4, 1927, and no briefs have been filed by petitioners though the time allowed within which to do so has long since expired. The grounds upon which petitioners seek to have the award hereto reviewed and set aside is that same are contrary both to the law and the evidence and there is no evidence to sustain the findings of the Commission and no finding of fact by the Commission on which to base its award. We have carefully reviewed the transcript of the testimony taken before the Commission at the hearing conducted by the chairman of the Commission in McAlester, Okla., on April 11, 1927, and upon which testimony the order of May 6, 1927, awarding compensation herein was based, and we are clearly of the opinion there is ample testimony to support the finding of the Commission.
It does not appear from the record herein that any errors of law are presented, and petitioners having failed to file brief herein, no question of law is presented for determination. It is well settled that only errors of law will be considered in reviewing awards made by the Industrial Commission, and if there is any evidence reasonably tending to support the award, same will not be disturbed. Glasco v. State Industrial Com.,
Having found from our examination of the record that the findings of the Commission are amply supported by the testimony, and no errors of law being presented for review, it follows that the prayer of petitioner herein must be denied, and it is so ordered.
All the Justices concur, except PHELPS, J., absent and not participating.
