COSTIGAN, J. The insurer appeals from a decision awarding the employee ongoing G. L. c. 152, § 35, partial incapacity benefits for an accepted injury at work. The insurer contends that the decision is arbitrary and capricious, as the sole expert medical opinion in evidence, that of the § 11A impartial examiner, was that the employee could return to his pre-injury work duties as a truck driver. We agree, and reverse the decision.
