Heading: the claim should be remanded to the court of civil appeals for its reconsideration of the issues raised in employer's petition for review

Text: ¶ 16 COCA's pronouncement, which vacated the claim's denial on a theory chosen sua sponte, declined to reach for review the critical issuewhether there is competent evidence to support the panel's order. Today's resolution vacates COCA's opinion and reinstates the viability of the yet-unresolved issues that stand tendered by the claimant's petition for review. [36] When this court vacates a COCA opinion, it may address itself to any issue properly tendered by the petition for review or remand the claim to COCA for that court's resolution. [37] Whether the trial tribunal's panel did in fact err in adopting the trial judge's order should be reviewed in the first instance by COCA. We hence retransfer the claim to that court.
