CARROLL, J. The employee appeals an administrative judge's decision denying and dismissing his claim for § 34A permanent and total incapacity benefits. The employee claims that the judge erred by impermissibly substituting his own opinion for that of the impartial psychiatric examiner on a medical issue. Because the judge found different facts from those relied on by the impartial psychiatrist, he was not bound to accept that opinion. Finding no error, we affirm the decision.
