New here (hello!), and tried searching for this topic but couldn't find what I was looking for, so here goes.
The back story: After nearly a year, the IC denied me. That was April 2012. I requested a hearing (with an attorney) with the commission. First opinion in my favor with the single commissioner. IC appealed, and I went on to win again with the full commission. That was early Sept. If they didn't appeal, they were ordered to resume TTD, backpay of over a year plus interest, and attorney fees. They didn't appeal.
The IC has resumed medical; they have authorized Dr appointments and treatments. I've talked to the paralegal (we email more frequently than I speak with the attorney), and she told me that they (her and my lawyer) have been working with the IC to send in any paperwork they have requested to start back up payments, and that it won't take months and months to get the backpay and restart the TTD.
How long does it take for the IC to start paying once again? How long can they legally put off paying me?
Thanks!
