Order of the Court Judges do their best to have orders done withn 90 days from the date the case was ready for decision. The Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Order outline the facts presented, and the statutes and case law that affect the case. The Judge then discusses how she reached her conclusions. Finally, the Order outlines the decision of the Judge, and the payments required. All payments outlined in an Order must be paid within 30 days unless a Motion for Review (appeal) is filed. A Motion for Review can be filed by either side if there is an error in the order. Once the Order becomes final, the payments are made, and the case is concluded. Hopefully, at that point, life returns to normal. However, the Judge cannot always predict what benefits will be needed in the future. It is possible for additional cases with the Labor Commission to be needed to resolve new disputes. |
