Description
This case presents the issue whether an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) in a workers' compensation proceeding has inherent authority to provide a remedy for a fraudulent claim by ordering the claimant to repay the benefits fraudulently procured. The Industrial Claim Appeals Office (Panel) ruled that the ALJ has such inherent authority, and consequently, it affirmed the ALJ's order requiring Robert Lewis (claimant) to repay approximately $140,000 in benefits. We affirm in part, for reasons different from those relied upon by the Panel, and set aside in part.
