The issue is whether appellant established that he sustained an emotional condition causally related to his accepted employment injury.
The Board has given careful consideration to the issue involved, the contentions of appellant on appeal, and the entire case record. The Board finds that the April 8, 1996 decision of the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs’ hearing representative is in accordance with the facts and the law in this case and therefore adopts the findings and conclusions of the hearing representative.[1]
The April 8, 1996 decision of the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs is affirmed.
