DISMISSAL
JESSE M. FRANKL, CHAIRMAN.
The medical provider, David A. Clukey, has petitioned for review from the September 12, 1994 Determination of the Ad Hoc Dispute Resolution Panel for the Eighth District. Notice of the decision was sent to the parties on September 12, 1994. SeeConaci v. Hartford Hospital, 36 Conn. App. 298 (1994); O’Connorv. United Parcel Service, 1741 CRB-4-93-5 (decided March 30, 1995). The petition for review was not filed, however, until Friday, September 23, 1994. Thus, would appear to be one day late on its face pursuant to § 31-301(a). The respondents accordingly have filed a motion to dismiss contesting this board’s jurisdiction over the appeal. See Practice Book § 4056.
The medical provider has not attempted any explanation of this apparent defect, nor has he filed any of the documents required in support of his appeal such as Reasons of Appeal or a brief. We therefore dismiss this appeal for failure to prosecute with due diligence pursuant to Practice Book § 4055. SeeEsquillin v. Pinto Lavado Enterprises,13 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 148, 1914 CRB-2-93-12 (Feb. 1, 1995); Green v. LaborForce of America, Inc., 13 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 146, 1908 CRB-3-93-11 (Feb. 1, 1995); Burke v. Abacus TransferStorage, 13 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 19, 20, 1782 CRB-3-93-7
(Nov. 3, 1994).
Commissioners Roberta S. Tracy and Michael S. Miles concur.
