I received a petition by mail from my employer that benefits should be terminated as of the date I was examined by their doctor, who only examined me for 10 minutes. Are my benefits going to stop?

You have received a Termination Petition. The employer believes that you have recovered from your injury and are no longer entitled to benefits. However, the employer still cannot stop your benefits without a court order or an agreement by the parties. This petition will be litigated before a Workers' Compensation Judge. To effectively defend a Termination Petition you should consult an attorney.
