27670 - Hilton v. Flakeboard America Limited

We granted certiorari to review an order of the Court of Appeals dismissing Petitioner Thomas Hilton's appeal of an admittedly interlocutory order of the South Carolina Workers' Compensation Commission's Appellate Panel.

The Court finds the post-conviction relief court's order was controlled by an error of law and reverses.
