Text: The trial judge's order of September 12, 1980 awarded claimant 100 weeks in compensation for 50% permanent disability from her February 27, 1978 on-the-job injury to the left eye. Employer's appeal to the review panel sought reversal of that portion of the order which found that the entire one-hundred-week award had accrued. The November 7, 1980 decision of the three-judge panel vacated and remanded [the claim] for redetermination of all issues. Employer's petition-for-review filed in this court asserts error by the panel (1) in vacating the trial judge's award and remanding the case for redetermination of all issues, inasmuch as the only issue appealed, which deals with the amount of weeks in accrued compensation, called for mere recomputation of accrual period and (2) in allowing claimant, who did not lodge an appeal, to present to the panel and argue before it issues not raised by the employer who was the sole appealing party in the case.
