Britton v. Labcorp

CASE NO. 5454 CRB-4-09-4

TAMEKA P. BRITTON

CLAIMANT-APPELLEE

v.

LABCORP

EMPLOYER

and

BROADSPIRE

INSURER

RESPONDENTS-APPELLANTS

ORDER

Respondent Broadspire filed a Petition for Review from a Sec. 31-288(b) penalty issued March 30, 2009. Respondent’s appeal is subsequent to an informal hearing and is therefore premature. No record exists. Absent a record this board cannot properly consider an appeal under Sec. 31-301. The matter is therefore remanded to the trial commissioner acting for the Fourth District for a Formal Hearing or other appropriate action. See Quinn v. Prime Technology, LLC, 5222 CRB-3-07-4 (May 14, 2007).
