Description
¶1 The Kessens, Claimant Lynn Stewart's uninsured employer, seek special action review of the Industrial Commission of Arizona's ("ICA") affirmance of the lump-sum commutation of Claimant's workers' compensation award. The Kessens assert that, as Claimant's employer, their consent was required before the ICA could commute Claimant's award of unscheduled permanent partial disability benefits to a lump sum. We hold that it was not. On cross-petition, Claimant challenges the ICA's reduction of the lump-sum award by subtracting the monthly disability payments made to him after he submitted his lump-sum request. We hold that Claimant failed to preserve this issue for review. Accordingly, we affirm the ICA's award approving the lump-sum commutation.
