Description
Claimant Brenda Orcutt (worker) appeals the workers' compensation judge's (judge) denial of her claim under NMSA 1978, Section 52-1-64 (Repl. Pamp. 1987) of the Workers' Compensation Act (the Act), based on an out-of-state injury. Worker, a New Mexico resident, was injured in Nevada while working for respondent S & L Paint Contractors, Ltd. (employer). Determining that worker's "contract of hire" was made in Nevada and not in New Mexico, the judge concluded that worker did not meet the extraterritorial coverage requirements under Section 52-1-64 and was thus not entitled to benefits under the Act. We agree with the judge's determination and affirm the denial of coverage.
