Teamster turned national workers’ comp expert Michael Duff explains the presumption landscape that’s rapidly developed over the last year during the pandemic.
He and hosts Alan and Judson Pierce discuss presumptions by statute, executive order, and administrative enactment.
Given the state of emergency, big questions emerging involve executive authority limits and what presumption for workers comp cases will look like as the emergency subsides.
For his part, Duff doesn’t believe the end is anywhere near, expecting the nation is only at the midway point in dealing with the pandemic.
Michael C. Duff teaches labor law, workers’ comp, torts and evidence at the University of Wyoming College of Law.
