umpires  jurisdiction  request for review  new facts to BOR, Umpire or Commission 

Summary:

The umpire weighed the evidence and found that claimant had failed to prove the "new fact" that he had been ill on the date of the first hearing when he did not show up. Decision upheld by the FCA. The medical certificate gives no indication of what the probems were, or why he could not attend. It merely states "OFF... due to medical illness". Regardless of any "large and liberal" interpretation which may be applied to this note, details cannot be derived where none exist.
