FABISZEWSKI, J. The employee appeals from the administrative judge’s decision awarding him § 34 temporary total incapacity benefits for a closed period, followed by two closed periods of § 35 temporary partial incapacity benefits, plus ongoing § 35 temporary partial incapacity benefits and § 30 medical benefits. On appeal, the employee raises six issues, five of which we summarily affirm. The final issue raised by the employee is whether the evidence supports the administrative judge’s decision that the employee is partially incapacitated and has a minimum-wage earning capacity. Because the hearing decision does not contain sufficient findings for us to determine whether the administrative judge applied the correct rules of law, we recommit the case for further findings on the issues of the employee’s incapacity and subsequent earning capacity. See, Praetz v. Factory Mut. Eng’g and Research, 7 Mass. Workers’ Comp. Rep. 45, 47 (1993).
