Opinion

December 29, 1970

Appeal by employer and its carrier from a decision of the Workmen's Compensation Board, filed November 26, 1969. The sole issue raised on this appeal is whether the Workmen's Compensation Board may impose an attorney's lien on an award where the claim was not controverted and the compensation due claimant had already been paid in the form of wages. The board found that the attorney's lien attaches to any compensation awarded. The precise issue has previously been decided by this court. ( Matter of Dickman v. City of New York, 25 A.D.2d 931, 932.) Decision affirmed, with costs to the Workmen's Compensation Board. Herlihy, P.J., Staley, Jr., Greenblott, Cooke and Sweeney, JJ., concur.
