Case Synopsis
The court considered whether a firefighter who does not qualify for a presumption that his cancer is a compensable occupational disease may still seek to prove it is a compensable occupational disease without the benefit of the presumption. The court also considered whether the appeals officer erred in awarding benefits in this case for a firefighter’s cancer.
