LEVINE, J. This case presents the question of whether the employee's attorney was properly awarded a hearing fee, pursuant to G.L. c. 152, §13A(5), when the insurer's appeal of a conference order was not perfected but a hearing was nevertheless scheduled. We hold that a fee should not have been awarded, and we reverse the decision awarding it.
