4610 In deciding that an employee of the City of Los Angeles who was not a CPA was not entitled under the commercial traveler doctrine to workers' compensation benefits for an injury he sustained while attending an out-of-town convention for CPAs, the court held that because his attendance at the convention was not required or authorized by the employment contract, the trip was voluntary and personal, and therefore outside the course of his employment.CitationCITY OF LOS ANGELES v WCAB (Commercial Traveler) 157 CA4 78 [See: LabC 3600; Dalgleish v Holt 108 CA2 561; Wiseman v Industrial Acc.
