I've been involved in a case for 10 years with the same "judge." His ignorance of WCL is astounding (A polite description. There are other possibilities.). As just one example, the law says in an accepted claim with subsequent lost time, the carrier has 18 days to begin making payments or controvert. In my case, in spite of many C-4s, doctor's notes and phone calls, the carrier made no response for 6 months. Instead of refusing the controversion and fining the carrier, the judge let everything proceed as if it was within 18 days. The judge even made the remarkable statement that "we don't punish insurance companies."Strangely, the minutes for this hearing don't seem to have made it into the record. The last two hearings he has announced his decision immediately upon my arrival in the hearing room, without hearing any input from me.
I understand it's very difficult to sue a State Agency, and I doubt the guy is a real lawyer, so I can't go to the Bar Association. Where do I file a complaint?
