JESSE M. FRANKL, CHAIRMAN. The claimant petitioned for review from the August 18, 1994 Finding and Award of the Commissioner acting for the Fifth District. To date, the claimant has neglected to file any of the requisite documents in support of his appeal, including Reasons for Appeal, a Motion to Correct, or a brief. We therefore dismiss the appeal for failure to prosecute with proper diligence in accordance with Practice Book § 4055. See Esquillin v. Pinto Lavado Enterprises, 13 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev.
