Description

This case came here by certification of the Kansas City Court of Appeals for a "re-examination of the applicable law," although
that court reversed the judgment of the Circuit Court. That opinion appears at 368 S.W.2d 528. The case involves a Workmen's
Compensation claim and the question here is solely one of limitations. The referee and the Industrial Commission denied compensation
and the Circuit Court affirmed. The facts appear in detail in the opinion of the Court of Appeals, but we digest here those necessary to an understanding
of the issue. Rozanne Hundley, an employee of Matthews Hinsman Company, slipped on ice in the entranceway of her employer's
premises in Kansas City on the morning of January 23, 1959, and sustained a hard fall. She testified: "Well, I hurt my back.
I mean, it hurt, because I fell so hard and so flat * * *." She also stated that the lower part of her back struck the concrete
floor; all the evidence indicated that the injury was to the low back and that her pain was there. On the same morning she
was hospitalized, X-rays were taken, and thereafter heat was applied to her low back area with deep heat therapy. In about
one week she was released from the hospital, and a corset-type brace was prescribed by her physician; she wore this for about
three months. She made occasional office visits to the doctor until the first part of March. She returned to part-time work
about two weeks after the fall and later resumed her full duties. For a time she experienced some discomfort, but her condition
was gradually "getting better." She was paid $51.90 compensation (voluntary) and the compensation insurer also paid the doctor's
bill of $43, $188.75 to the hospital and $8.30 for the brace.
