 COMPENSATION HEARING ORDER GRANTING SUMMARY JUDGMENT

       This claim came before the Court on January 23, 2020, upon remand from the
Workers' Compensation Appeals Board. The Appeals Board remanded the claim for
entry of "an order granting Employer's motion for summary judgment with respect to the
Employee's alleged dental injuries." The Appeals Board affirmed the Court's entry of
summary judgment dismissing Ms. Armstrong's claim for benefits based on alleged non-
dental injuries.

         In compliance with the Appeals Board's decision, the Court grants Chattanooga
Billiard Club's motion for summary judgment under Tennessee Rule of Civil Procedure
56 as to Ms. Armstrong's dental injury, and it dismisses the claim with prejudice as to
refiling. The Court taxes the $150 filing fee to Chattanooga Billiard Club pursuant to
Tennessee Compilation Rules and Regulations 0800-02-21.06 (2019). Chattanooga
Billiard Club shall pay the fee to the Clerk of the Court of Workers' Compensation
Claims within five business days of the issuance of this order. Further, counsel for
Chattanooga Billiard Club shall submit a completed SD-2 form within ten (10) business
days of the entry ofthis order.

         Absent appeal, this order will become final thirty (30) days after issuance of this
order.
