Description
The Wyoming Workers Compensation Division appeals from a district court order restoring legal fees and costs billed by the attorney appointed to represent an injured worker. Counsel petitioned for review by the district court following an administrative hearing examiners reduction of her compensation by more than thirty-three percent and disallowance of about half of her costs. The immediate issue is whether a district court can hear an appeal from an order by an administrative hearing examiner and modify the order when the district court judge finds the amount awarded is unreasonable and is established by an improper legal standard within the workers compensation statutes, W.S. 27-14-101 through 27-14-805, and the state constitution.
