This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

The claimant was injured in Alabama and submitted a claim under Florida Worker's Compensation under a clause that permitted such compensation if the contract of employment was made in the state of Florida, the employer's place of business or the employee's residence was in the state, and that contract of employment was not for services exclusively outside the state. The original commissioner found that the contract had been accepted in Florida and permitted the claim. The Full Commission found that the contract for employment was conditioned upon the claimant coming to Atlanta. The claimant appealed the decision.
