The respondent-Second Injury Fund was represented by Diane Duhamel, Esq., Assistant Attorney General.
This Petition for Review from the June 22, 1988 Supplemental Finding and Award of the Commissioner for the Second District was heard September 16, 1988 before a Compensation Review Division panel consisting of the Commission Chairman, John Arcudi, and Commissioners Andrew Denuzze and Frank Verrilli.
JOHN ARCUDI, CHAIRMAN.
At issue is whether the Second District erred in ordering the Second Injury Fund to pay Sec. 31-301(b) benefits in its June 22, 1988 ruling.[1] We are not here addressing respondents’ appeal from the original March 29 Finding and Award.
Annechiarico v. Friendly Ice Cream Co., 6 Conn. Workers’ Comp. Rev. Op. 18, 640 CRD-7-87 (1988) is on all fours and therefore dispositive. We find no error and affirm the Commissioner’s June 22 order against the Second Injury Fund.
