Description

We granted certiorari to consider whether the court of appeals erred in affirming the decision by the Industrial Claim Appeals Office (Panel) to terminate future worker's compensation benefits payable to the claimant, Richard K. Eckhardt. In an unpublished opinion, the court of appeals held that the Colorado Workmen's Compensation Act, now called the Workers' Compensation Act (Act), does not require an employer and/or its insurance carrier to act reasonably in withholding consent to a compromise or settlement of a suit by an injured employee against the alleged third-party tortfeasors. Eckhardt v. Village Inn, No. 90CA0060 (Colo. App. Oct. 11, 1990). We reverse.
