This case presents for review the decision of the Chancery Court of Union County apportioning a workers compensation award for permanent total disability between the employer and the Second Injury Fund. The trial court found the award is controlled by Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-6-208(a) (Supp. 1996). A Workers Compensation Panel, upon reference for findings of fact and Conclusions of law pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-6-225(e)(5) (Supp. 1996), found the award is controlled by section (b) of Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-6-208. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed as modified.
