                 (Andrew S. Kasmer; Chasen & Boscolo, on brief), for appellee.

       American Airlines, Inc./AMR Corporation and its insurer appeal a decision of the

Workers’ Compensation Commission (1) awarding temporary total disability benefits, temporary

partial disability benefits, and medical benefits to Eton Anthony Thomas, Jr. (claimant),

(2) finding that claimant established a change in condition, (3) finding that claimant was entitled

to periods of temporary partial disability benefits, and (4) finding that claimant adequately

marketed his residual work capacity. We have reviewed the record and the commission’s

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

commission in its final opinion. See American Airlines, Inc./AMR Corporation v. Thomas,

VWC File No. 198-15-85 (Nov. 17, 2003). We dispense with oral argument and summarily

the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
