Continental Casualty Insurance Company, Petitioner v. Functional Restoration Associates, Productive Rehabilitation…

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that Continental Casualty Insurance Co. has no statutory right to judicial review of the Workers' Compensation Commission's medical benefits decision and, because it failed to plead an inherent constitutional right, the district court's dismissal for lack of jurisdiction was affirmed. The Court also noted that the dissent argued the majority misinterpreted section 410.255 and would have upheld jurisdiction.
