COSTIGAN, J. The self-insurer contends the administrative judge erred by failing to address its duly raised defense of § 1(7A) "a major" causation in this claim involving a lumbar strain superimposed on a degenerative disc condition. We agree this was error and, as the self-insurer requests, recommit the case for further findings.
