Doyle v. Department of Industrial Accidents
Massachusetts Appeals Court
Decided September 7, 2000No. 98-P-1647PublishedCited by 9 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtLenk, J.
John J. Doyle claims on appeal that it was error for a Superior Court judge to have dismissed the complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief that Doyle brought against the Department of Industrial Accidents (DIA). Doyle’s complaint arises from the fact that the DIA, despite initially having deemed Doyle suitable for vocational rehabilitation benefits and having so advised him, thereafter reversed its decision. Doyle maintains that the DIA’s procedures for adjudicating claims for vocational rehabilitation benefits deprive claimants, such as himself, of their right to due process of law.
