FABRICANT, J. This case presents an issue of coverage only, as the underlying claim has been resolved by the parties with a § 19 agreement in which liability has been accepted, and the Workers’ Compensation Trust Fund (Trust Fund) has agreed to pay a closed period of partial disability benefits. The case before us now presents the issue of whether the employer’s workers’ compensation policy was properly cancelled by National Union Fire Insurance (insurer). As there is ample evidence in support of the judge’s finding of proper notice of policy cancellation, we affirm the decision for the reasons set forth below.
