Description
TOCI, Judge The employer and carrier bring this special action review of an Industrial Commission award. The claimant sustained
an industrial injury to his right hand and wrist. While claimant was under treatment for the industrial injury, a third party
rear ended claimant's automobile in a nonindustrial accident. The automobile accident aggravated the injury to claimant's
right hand and wrist. The administrative law Judge entered an award granting the claimant further medical and compensation
benefits. The award denied the carrier lien rights in the claimant's recovery from the third party. We conclude the later nonindustrial injury to the hand and wrist is within the range of compensable consequences of the original
industrial injury. Also, Ariz. Rev. Stat. Ann. ("A.R.S.") section 23-1023, as interpreted by our decisions, grants no lien
rights to the carrier in the claimant's potential recovery against a nonindustrial tortfeasor. Thus, we affirm. We do not
consider the remaining arguments raised by the carrier.
