Balcerak v. County of Nassau green
ny · 1999
2 sentences

2011The Court of Appeals made this clear in Matter of Balcerak v County of Nassau ( 94 NY2d 253 [1999]), where it held that a determination by the WCB that an injury is work-related does not, by operation of collateral estoppel, automatically entitle an injured employee to benefits under General Municipal Law § 207-c (the counterpart to General Municipal Law § 207-a that applies to police officers).

2002I agree with petitioner that Matter of Balcerak v County of Nassau ( 94 NY2d 253 ) stands only for the limited proposition that a determination by the Workers’ Compensation Board that an injury is work-related does not per se entitle an injured employee to benefits under General Municipal Law § 207-c and that the Court’s further statement in Balcerak ( 94 NY2d at 259 ) concerning the “heightened risks and duties” standard to be met before benefits may be awarded under section 207-c is merely dicta.
