Description
In PDM Molding, Inc. v. Stanberg, 885 P.2d 280 (Colo. App. 1994), the court of appeals reversed a decision of the respondent Industrial Claim Appeals Office (ICAO) awarding temporary total disability benefits to respondent Derrick Stanberg, a workers' compensation claimant. The court of appeals held that the termination of an employee for fault does not automatically bar the employee from receiving temporary total disability benefits pursuant to section 8-42-105, 3B C.R.S. (1994 Supp.), of the Workers' Compensation Act of Colorado (the Act). Reasoning that the issue of whether Stanberg had been terminated for fault must be resolved before the question of his eligibility for temporary total disability benefits could be decided, the court of appeals vacated the ICAO's order and remanded the case to the ICAO for an initial determination of whether Stanberg's employment was terminated for fault. PDM Molding, 885 P.2d at 283-84. Having granted a petition filed by the Colorado Compensation Insurance Authority (the Authority) for certiorari review of the court of appeals' judgment, we affirm the court of appeals' judgment, though for reasons that differ from those adopted by that court, and remand with directions.
