Court of Appeals of Virginia.

Decided February 18, 1986.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert P. Hudock (Robert P. Hudock & Associates, Vienna, on brief), for appellant.

Malcolm R. West, Asst. Atty. Gen. (Gerald L. Baliles, Atty. Gen., Walter A. McFarlane, Deputy Atty. Gen., on brief), for appellee.

Present: DUFF, COLE and MOON, JJ.

DUFF, Judge.

This appeal questions the authority of the Industrial Commission to hold an attorney in contempt for charging a claimant a fee in excess of that awarded by the Commission. After a full hearing, the Commission concluded it had such authority, held the attorney in contempt, and ordered him to refund to the claimant the fee collected in excess of that awarded. We agree with this conclusion and affirm.
