Stetzer v. Logistec of Connecticut, Inc., 073196
Decision by defendant-Benefits Review Board regarding award of workers compensation under the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, 33 U.S.C. section 901 (2003) is affirmed where: 1) the prior award of benefits was unenforceable because the amount of compensation could not be determined without an additional ruling on disputed evidence that was not before the original administrative law judge; 2) the second law judge properly modified the original benefits award pursuant to 33 U.S.C. section 922; and 3) the court did not review the Board's decision attorney's fees because it was not final.
