Assignment of hearings.

Workers' Compensation Administrative Regulation regarding
Assignment and Postponement of Hearings and the Authority of Claims Personnel


 

Sec. 31-279-6. Assignment of hearings. An assignment should normally be requested of a compensation commissioner only when prior consultations between the parties have failed to achieve an agreement which can be reduced to writing. It shall therefore be considered an impropriety for a hearing to be requested by an employer or carrier with no prior discussions between the claimant and the respondent.
