No. A-97-572.

573 N.W.2d 786 (1998)

6 Neb. App. 371

Michael GIBSON, Appellee, v. KURT MANUFACTURING and Safeco, its Workers' Compensation Carrier, Appellants.

Court of Appeals of Nebraska.

January 13, 1998.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John R. Hoffert, of Knudsen, Berkheimer, Richardson, Endacott & Routh, Lincoln, for appellants.

Samuel W. Segrist, of Meister & Segrist, Scottsbluff, for appellee.

HANNON, SIEVERS and INBODY, JJ.

HANNON, Judge.

The issues presented by this workers' compensation case are whether the claimant, Michael Gibson, is entitled to vocational rehabilitation and whether a Workers' Compensation Court can postpone a determination of a claimant's loss of earning capacity until the claimant completes vocational rehabilitation. We find in the affirmative on both issues and, therefore, affirm in part and reverse in part the judgment of the review panel.
