Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania.

October 24, 1984.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael J. Dowd, Dowd and Kocsis, for petitioner.

W. Marshall Dawsey, Griffin and Dawsey, P.C., for respondent.

Argued September 10, 1984, before Judges ROGERS, CRAIG and MacPHAIL, sitting as a panel of three.


OPINION BY JUDGE CRAIG, October 24, 1984:

Vincent Arena appeals from a decision of the Pennsylvania Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board, which affirmed a referee's decision denying Arena's disability claim petition. We must determine the applicable scope of review where a second referee has made findings on the basis of testimony taken before another referee, and whether the second referee properly found that Arena had failed to prove a compensable injury.
