LEVINE, J. The employee, her chiropractor and her attorney at hearing appeal from a decision in which an administrative judge concluded that all three were jointly and severally liable for violation of § 14(2)’s prohibition against fraudulent claims for compensation benefits. We affirm the decision as to the employee. We reverse the decision as to the employee’s attorney and chiropractor. We reserve the right of the insurer to bring a proper § 14(2) claim against the chiropractor, consistent with this opinion.
