AFTER REMAND

PER CURIAM:

This is a worker's compensation case. The issue is whether the Worker's Compensation Appellate Commission erred in dismissing the plaintiff's appeal and summarily affirming a denial of benefits because he failed to file a brief on appeal. The Court of Appeals affirmed. However, we reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals and remand the case for a decision on the merits of the appeal.
