Wow. You DID get help on how the law works with regard to workers comp. You also got a lot of help with your previous thread. The fact that you don't like the answers doesn't mean they aren't legally sound.

I suggest your retain an attorney to explain.
I have people here telling me that the administration must be making the best possible decision, despite their not knowing my administration. I was addressing that. Of course I appreciate the advice I've gotten.

Thank you, I did come across that article when I was searching and I did read it. I agree that it doesn't sound like I can make any kind of case for permanent impairment. I wouldn't want to. I want to teach, not live off worker's comp.
Here are additional links to additional information that you can read through and then, as I'mTheFather recommended, you should seek out legal help in your area of California for a personal review of your options. Workers compensation IS one option, but I do not see it as being one that is likely to be an easy one to successfully pursue. I could be wrong.

Good luck.

I don't think this sounds like workers comp. Possibly regular STD, but I'm not even sure about that. Especially since you weren't even involved in the incident.
