An attorney who specializes in workers' compensation cases is challenging Gov. Mary Fallin's appointment of an assistant attorney general to the Oklahoma Workers' Compensation Commission.

Attorney Bob Burke asked the state Supreme Court on Wednesday to block the appointment of Megan Tilly to a seat on the three-member commission. Burke alleges Tilly doesn't have the three years' experience in workers' compensation that state law requires of commission members.
