Statute Of Limitations?

You need to visit Kansas, it's not yellow brick roads, or munckins, although we do have our share of tornados.

Kansas is a state with many large cities. I live near Wichita, the airplane capital of the world.

Lots of beautiful country in our state.

You cannot obtain a hearing before an administrative law judge unless you meet the following deadlines: filing an application for hearing within three (3) years of the date of accident or within two (2) years of the last payment of compensation, whichever is later."

Yes, spent a few years there and I especially like the drive on the
turnpike thru the Flint Hills, I had some friends and family members, that worked at some of the different Aircraft Facilities,
they have mad a monumental addition to the industry private, commercial and military.
Thx Again 1171, you have no idea what a difference you have made

1171, I searched the site you provided and located forms to
order my previous w/c information and will also file my claim
and since I already tried the Ks Bar Assoc. with less than positive
results, with your help I can get where I need to go with much
better results, I will keep you posted, If your interested.

Thanks Again, MW

I was injured in 2005, had surgery, reached MMI and my medical was closed.

I continued to have medical problems from my injury and hired an attorney to reopen my claim.

My attorney sent me for a medical evaluation and scheduled a court hearing to reopen my claim.

Yes, you can reopen your claim, althiugh I would advise you hire an attorney.

Bummer Knees, I read both your messages and appreciate your
input and empathy, between you and 1171, I recieved enough
information, to send me down the right path for much needed
medical attention and reviving my claim.

Thanks Bummer Knees,
MW
