Opinion
Decided May 23, 1990
The defendants' petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 21 Conn. App. 270, is granted, limited to the following issues:
"1. Did the Appellate Court err in concluding that the worker's compensation commissioner was not authorized to give the employer a credit against all future payments or expenses it may be obliged to make for an injured employee in an amount equal to the employee's net recovery for that injury against a third party tortfeasor?
"2. Did the Appellate Court err in concluding that the workers' compensation commissioner was not authorized to give the employer a credit against all future payments it may become obliged to make to or on behalf of the employee in an amount equal to the employee's net recovery from a claim filed against the third party tortfeasor?"
Jason M. Dodge, in support of the petition.
