CASE NO. 03927 CRB-07-98-11 CLAIM NO. 700107587Workers’ Compensation Commission
NOVEMBER 18, 1998

DISMISSAL OF APPEAL
The pro se claimant has filed a petition for review from the October 29, 1998 Finding and Dismissal of the Commissioner acting for the Seventh District. The trier dismissed the claimant’s § 31-290a complaint, finding insufficient proof that he had been terminated in retaliation for pursuing his rights under Chapter 568. Section § 31-290a(b) allows a party to appeal a trier’s § 31-290a decision to the Appellate Court. This Board lacks jurisdiction over such an appeal. Czekala v.
