Legal Question in Workers Comp in Kansas
In 1982 I tore my acl in my right knee, work comp covered that injury. in 2009 I tore the cart ledge in the same knee working for a different company and their work comp covered it but I was told I would probably need a knee replacement in the future. now2014 working at a new company I hurt the knee again. will they be required to correct the problem i'm having with my knee.

If the damage is work related, they should cover. If the work incident merely exacerbated an old injury, your attorney will have to put pressure to get full coverage. If there was no incident at the 3rd employer, there may be no wc coverage. If you haven't already, consult directly with a wc attorney in your area very soon.
Good luck
