KOZIOL, J. The self-insurer appeals from a decision finding it liable for a July 28, 2015, industrial injury and ordering it to pay the employee § 34 total incapacity benefits from July 28, 2015, and continuing. The self-insurer argues that multiple errors in the decision require its reversal, with dismissal of the employee’s claim. We agree that several errors require the decision to be vacated, but the highly factual nature of this dispute requires recommittal for further findings of fact. In this case, the matter must be reassigned to a different judge for a hearing de novo.1
