## Opinion text

LARSEN, Justice,
dissenting.
I dissent. As the original record supported awarding benefits to Henry Croll (now to Evelyn Croll, his widow), I *88 would affirm the original award of benefits. To remand, when there was no intrinsic error in the prior proceedings for the purpose of giving the employer a second opportunity to litigate the matter, violated Croll’s due process rights.
PAPADAKOS, J., joins in this dissenting opinion.
