Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees  jurisdiction  decision incomplete 

Summary:

Held that the maxim "no one is to be twice tried for one fault" does not apply if the Board of Referees neglects to dispose of an issue which is before them to decide and which they are empowered to dispose. It had the jurisdiction to re-open its hearing to deal with the issue. SEVERUD quoted.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees  jurisdiction  reason for existence of boards 

Summary:

Boards were established to allow for a quick and informal resolution of disputes between claimants and the Commission. This purpose would be defeated if a party was not allowed to have the referees go back and deal with an issue which they had neglected to address in the first decision.
