Description
The appellant was injured on August 10, 1954, while engaged in extrahazardous employment, and filed a claim with the department of labor and industries August 17, 1954. Thereafter he elected to pursue his common law remedy against the third party who was responsible for the accident. He received no compensation or payment of medical expenses from the department. His tort action resulted in a compromise, whereby he received $68,500, an amount admittedly far in excess of the compensation provided by the workmen's compensation act. After the settlement which was made with the approval of the department, the appellant filed his claim for payment of medical expenses, which was rejected. The board of industrial insurance appeals confirmed the action of the department, and on appeal to the superior court, the decision of the board was affirmed without opinion. This appeal followed.
