OPINION
JESSE M. FRANKL, CHAIRMAN.
The respondent has petitioned for review from the July 24, 1998 Finding and Award of the Commissioner acting for the First District. In that decision the trial commissioner found that in addition to an accepted back injury, the claimant sustained a compensable injury to his left foot when he was assaulted at work on August 12, 1993. In support of their appeal, the respondent contend that the claimant failed to file a timely notice of claim for his foot injury.
