Decision of Administrative Law Judge: Remanded.
[1] OPINION AND ORDER
[2] This matter comes on for review by the Full Commission upon remand by the Arkansas Court of Appeals.
[3] We have conducted a de novo review of the entire record. The Arkansas Court of Appeals has remanded the case for more specific findings of fact in support of the decision of the Full Commission which affirmed and adopted the opinion of the Administrative Law Judge. We are of the opinion that the Administrative Law Judge should fully develop findings of fact and conclusions of law not inconsistent with the opinion of the Arkansas Court of Appeals. Therefore, we remand this matter back to the Administrative Law Judge and direct him to more fully set forth findings of fact and conclusions of law on which he relies to support his decision. He may request briefs by the parties if he so desires.
[4] Thus, we remand this matter back to the Administrative Law Judge. The Administrative Law Judge is directed to set forth with more specificity, the findings of facts and conclusions of law consistent with the proceedings and opinion of the Arkansas Court of Appeals.
[5] IT IS SO ORDERED.
JAMES W. DANIEL, Chairman ALICE L. HOLCOMB, Commissioner
[6] Commissioner Humphrey concurs.
