New question for everyone.

Thank you to everyone that has answered my questions, your answers has truly helped me in understanding these legal issues. This addressed to lfoster21, my injuries actually started when my former employer didn't comply with my Doctor's return to work guidelines. I suffered injuries to my left ankle, lower back and left leg. My former employer basically did everything possible to make me uncomfortable at work, didn't go by my Doctor's request, didn't allow me to work two less hours a day (as per my Doctor's request, I was working 10 hr days) and placed me in an environment where I couldn't rest even if I wanted or had to. They pretty much were trying to make me quit but rejecting my entire request and making my work environment awful! This question is for everyone; as I stated in my first question, I was going to my Attorney's office today, to sign the final papers that would get sent to the WC for final approval of the settlement. Now my question is I had to sign a paper saying I would never reapply to for new employment with my former employer, is that normal? I of course would never nor did I ever think about it, I'm just curious about that one. Also does WC settlements or just in general always apply an annuity mortality table for 1949 to your case? This seems kind of strange to me, and makes no sense seeing that they wouldn't know your complete health history as of today and your family (mother, father, grand’s etc). Thanks again everyone for answering all my questions and prior ones.

yes. most lumpsum buyouts are contingent on not being able to refile and collect again from the same employer.
