My story of basic human rights violations and the laws of the state

You should have put OT as the first 2 characters of the subject, so
that automatic filters would have filtered your post out, for readers
who want that to happen. Since you didn't, my first impression of you
is that you are an intentional off-topic poster, so your credibility
drops. Maybe you didn't know that you should use "OT", but some
people may not know that they shouldn't have their pants down showing
their underpants at a job interview. Such a person would still make a
bad first impression.

Your extra strong assertions that your story is true also, ironically,
lowers its credibility, especially when it is ppretty easy to believe
that the story is true. Did you used to think everything worked
perfectly?

You may still have a claim but read further.

It has been about 3 yrs. since my accident. I Thank my God the
Veteran's Administration did not turn there back on me. They are
giving me my injections and I am trying to get back to work, anyone
need a good production set-up man with a bum knee? Anyway, according
to the Worker's Compensation Act in the state of Georgia I DO NOT even
have the right to a JURY TRIAL. IS THIS WHAT "LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR

This has nothing to do with liberty, and people can come to an
agreement on what justice is in a particular situation. I would
expect the concept of Workers Compensation Laws has had its
constitutionality challenged already in court, and it has been upheld.
I used to, for less than a year, work for the federal Workers
Compensation office, and I think all 50 states have similar laws.

Certainly in most normal workplace injuries, the procedure works
pretty well, and iirc (could be wrong) it was considered a positive
accomplishment for workers when such laws were passed.

Your situation could certainly be an exception and if so, an appeal is
the answer, possibly followed by a lawsuit. Although one can appeal
without a lawyer probably, you should at least consult one first, and
it may be a good idea to hire one. You should contact an attorney who
specializes in such things. Some of them are not hard to find since
some of them advertise on TV. And I believe they don't charge in
advance, only if they win, but if a claim is weak, they may either
refuse to take the claim or want to be paid by the hour win or loose.
I wouldn't want a tv lawyer, but it's a place to start.

Be sure to be clear to the lawyer which accident happened 3 years ago
and when the second accident happened. Since you were getting
ongoing treatment, no matter how inadqueate it might have been,
figuring out the statute of limitiations is much much harder.

BTW, if you want us to buy foreign made stuff, you should look into
the workplace medical care in the countries where B&S competitors are.
Might be much worse.

ALL" means??? I don't know who to ask, Please, can we just have a jury
trial?

PLEASE give me my day in court.

Typically there would have to be criminal negligece for there to be a
jury trial. This has to be proved beyond reasonable doubt which is a
high standard.

Your talking about a criminal prosecution. There are jury trials in
civil lawsuits too, for which the burden of proof is much lower, just
a preponderance of the evidence.

It even sounds as if some share of the negligence may
be yours.

So what? What is the law in Geogia on contributory negligence versus
comparitive negligence? He informed them that he was groggy and they
ignored that. What duty did he have beyond informing them?

You may or may not have a civil claim against the company, the
managers, or the doctors. An attorney is who you need to talk to not
this newsgroup.

I agree with you here. Only argued with you because....too long to
explain.

If your claim has merit then it is certain you can
find a lawyer to represents you.

You are full of it. This newgroup has more info potential than any
attorney.

ROTFLOL. Especially when none of use have lived in Georgia and we
all disagree with each other. LOLHMS, holding my sides.

You don't know what you are talking about.
