Text: Stolworthy sustained an injury in September of 1992 while working for Clark Construction. The parties stipulated to his PTD, with liability being apportioned fifteen percent to the SIF and eighty-five percent to the CCIA. Stolworthy became eligible for social security retirement benefits in July 1992, a few months before his industrial injury. He began receiving social security retirement benefits on December 1, 1992, and turned sixty-five on July 13, 1995. His spouse began receiving social security retirement benefits when she turned sixty-two on February 1, 1994. On August 20, 1996, the ALJ found that respondents CCIA and SIF were entitled to an offset, due to the social security retirement benefits payable to Stolworthy and his wife. The ICAO affirmed the ALJ's order. The court of appeals affirmed the ALJ and ICAO decisions and upheld the constitutionality of section 8-42-103(1)(c), in reliance on Culver, which it announced on the same day as Stolworthy. C.
