At trial, Plaintiff asserted he was permanently and totally disabled and in addition to seeking indemnity benefits asserted he had outstanding medical bills in the amount of $190,000.00. At trial, Ms. Lockett presented an idiopathic defense arguing that Plaintiff’s injuries to his left and right knees and lumbar spine were not caused by his employment and were unexplained.
