Ruffin, Chief Judge.
Following a work-related injury, Lester Dallas was awarded temporary total disability benefits under the workers’ compensation scheme. The State Board of Workers’ Compensation (“the Board”) subsequently suspended Dallas’ benefits for failure to cooperate with medical treatment. Thereafter, Dallas requested that his benefits be reinstated, his weekly payment be increased, and attorney fees be assessed against his employer, Flying J, Inc. (“Flying J”). Following a hearing, the administrative law judge (“ALJ”) reinstated Dallas’ benefits and increased his weekly payment.
