Joyce Western Corp. v. Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board

I dissent on the basis of the opinion of the Commonwealth Court, 103 Pa.Cmwlth.Ct 204, 519 A.2d 1107 (1987) (per Barbieri, S.J.; Crumlish, P.J. and Colins, J.). As that court stated, “we agree with the [Workmen’s Compensation Appeal] Board that we do not have before us a properly presented issue [of refusal of reasonable services] under Section 306(f)....” 77 P.S. § 531(4). 103 Pa.Cmwlth.Ct. at 208, 519 A.2d at 1109. The stipulation of the parties precludes our consideration of that issue.

PAPADAKOS, J., joins in this dissenting opinion.
