Heading: The First Check Was Mailed in a Timely Fashion.

Text: Substantial evidence supports AIG's contention that its local adjuster, Bob Jackson, mailed the initial check to Carriere on November 15. The board found that Jackson had indeed mailed the check on November 15 based on: 1) the photo copy of the November 12, 1994 check bearing the employee's correct address; 2) Mr. Jackson's testimony and log entries; 3) a separate check sent to the employee's attorney (we have received no complaints regarding this check for attorney's fees); [and] 4) the employee's testimony that he believed he was a victim of mail tampering. The record supports the board's finding that the check was mailed on November 15. Jackson's records in particular are quite thorough, and we have no reason to doubt their accuracy.
