DISMISSAL

JESSE M. FRANKL, CHAIRMAN. The respondents have filed a petition for review from the October 11, 1995 Finding and Award of the Commissioner acting for the Fourth District. The respondents have failed to file reasons of appeal, a motion to correct, or a brief. In addition, the respondents did not appear at oral argument before this board.

As the respondents have neglected to actively pursue their appeal, we dismiss the appeal for failure to prosecute with proper diligence pursuant to Practice Book § 4184A. See Divita v. Thames Valley Steel, 12 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 50, 1541 CRB-2-92-10 (Jan. 26, 1994); Milardo v. Shuck Petroleum, 11 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 279, 1559 CRB-8-92-11 (Nov. 22, 1993); Hargatai v. Copy Data, Inc., 11 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 106, 107, 1475 CRB-4-92-7 (June 2, 1993).

The respondents’ appeal is dismissed.

Commissioners George Waldron and Robin L. Wilson concur.
