Docket Number: DIA Board No. 054043-00
Location: Boston

CARROLL, J. The insurer appeals from a decision in which an administrative judge awarded the employee ongoing § 34 benefits for bilateral carpal and cubital tunnel syndromes. The insurer argues that the judge a) erred with regard to two motions it filed in the course of the proceedings, b) mischaracterized the impartial medical evidence, and c) failed to perform a vocational profile analysis in reaching his conclusion on the employee’s incapacity. We agree with some of the insurer’s arguments and therefore recommit the case.
