You should contact some applicant's attorneys in the area in which you live. State Disability is only for non-work injuries, and they can impose a lien on any TTD owed for the same time as they paid. I do not understand why there was a break in TTD payments unless a Dr. said you were able to return to work or your condition was permanent and stationary. You need to find out from the claims adjuster why there was such a gap in payment.
Unless your doctor said it was okay for you to go back to work, you should have been receiving your TTD payments. I will be glad to give you a free consultation if you call 1.877.505.INJURY.
