Description

BIRCH, J. In this workers' compensation appeal, we consider the trial court's interpretation of the death benefit provisions of the Workers' Compensation Act 1 in calculating benefits and determine whether the trial court erred in ordering a partial commutation of attorneys' fees. The standard of review by this Court in workers' compensation cases is de novo upon the record, accompanied by a presumption of the correctness of the factual findings, unless the preponderance of the evidence is otherwise. Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-6-225(e) (Supp. 1995); Fink v. Caudle, 856 S.W.2d 952, 958 (Tenn. 1993). This case, however, involves questions of law. Thus, we are not bound by the preponderance of the evidence standard, and we review questions of law de novo without limitation. Ridings v. Ralph M. Parsons Co., 914 S.W.2d 79, 80 (Tenn. 1996); Union Carbide Corp. v. Huddleston, 854 S.W.2d 87, 91 (Tenn. 1993).
