Court of Appeals of New York

A claim for workers' compensation benefits is denied, where: 1) the Workers' Compensation Board need not infer, from the finding that a claimant withdrew from his or her employment due to an accident at the work place, that his or her post-accident loss of wages is attributable to physical limitations caused by the accident; and 2) there was substantial evidence to support the Board's determination that the claimant had not made a reasonable search for work consistent with her physical restrictions.
