Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania.

Decided May 11, 1999.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Timothy Dennis, pro se, petitioner.

James C. Conley, Pittsburgh, for respondent.

Before FLAHERTY, J., LEADBETTER, J., and NARICK, Senior Judge.


NARICK, Senior Judge.

The issue on appeal is whether Timothy Dennis (Petitioner) was physically and/or mentally unable to gather the information requested by the Northampton County Assistance Office (NCAO) in order to verify his eligibility for medical assistance under the Public Welfare Code (Code).1 Because this issue was not addressed by the Department of Public Welfare (DPW), the DPW's decision is vacated and the case remanded.
