Description
Appellee Spieker, on April 15, 1953, filed his claim under the Workmen's Compensation Act against appellant, Skelly Oil Company, seeking compensation for injuries sustained by appellee January 13, 1953 while employed by the company as a roustabout in the oil fields. Claim was for total and permanent disability, attorney's fee, medical expenses and hospitalization. Appellant's answer admitted the accident, denied the disability and, by way of affirmative defense, alleged that appellee's action was prematurely filed for the reason that, at the time appellee instituted the action, appellant was not in default in any payments due under the compensation act. Further in affirmative defense, appellant alleged payment or tender to appellee of all compensation to which he was entitled and that appellant had no notice or knowledge of the accidental injuries alleged by appellee.
