This week I received back another DOL Hearing Order from the Department of Licensing. And according to script, the DOL hearing officer ruled against my client. This is not unusual as the DOL is a difficult organization to deal with however, in this particular case the facts and the law are entirely in my client's favor and it's a black and white case - my client must win. No doubt - yet the DOL officer ruled differently. A good question is, how could this happen? A good answer is, because some DOL hearing officers (not all - want to be clear about that) are completely incompetent. Period. This particular hearing officer is not a lawyer so it is easy to understand why he clearly does not understand the law - yet it remains frustrating. I debated whether to mention by name this hearing officer, but for now I will not. However, if it does not reconsider his opinion (not bloody likely) then I just might. The next blog will be about my client's options now that the ruling was against him.
