NM. (AP) A state judge has awarded up to $75,000 to a Los Alamos Sncntific Laboratory worker who claims he was disabled by a neurotic fear that radiation would kill him Attorneys on both sides of the case involving Ramon Martinez, 57, of Espanola, said the i uling could have wide implications for the nut It ar industry, because the award was based solely on mental anxiety, not on any showing of actual phy steal harm. A spokesman for Los Alamos, the laboiatory about 40 miles northwest of Santa Fe where the first atomic bomb was developed, said no decision had been made about an appeal. The award came March 15 in an oral ruling at the end of n two-da- y trial conducted before District Judge J.T. Hensley in Espanola. Hensley ruled that Martinez was entitled to recover under the New Mexico occupational disability and disease law The judgment orders the laboratory and its insurance carrier to pay Martinez $125 per week for 600 weeks the maximum amount allow (d under the statute and to pick up the costs of any additional treatment for his anxiety neurosis. 1 think this is probably a precedent setter nationally, said Santa Fe attorney Gene Gallegos, who represented Martinez "In our research we found nothing exactly like tins Charmed Memories From America's Most Beautiful Store Select a landmark in precious metal for your charm bracelet The Tabernacle at the mi Ojvrib fur a 14K solid quid $100 IK) Gold filled $ ) ( Stedmq Silver $0 (Mi r r K V ' The Temple 14K soul qold Jn (, old filled Vs V t r0 Sterling Silvir $S Vt Vt ie VV - Cj A- - 0 Assorted bracelets from our collection. oaanrHZRv 20 East South Temple Ac ross from Hotel Utah Martinez, who worked in a laboratory foundry for 30 years shaping uranium 235 and 238 into devices ordered by scientists, had a number of physical ailments including liver and hearing problems.
