Adams v. Board of Review of Industrial Commission
Court of Appeals of Utah
821 P.2d 1 (1991)
An administrative agency's decision is arbitrary and capricious if it lacks sufficiently detailed findings of fact to inform a reviewing court of the basis for the decision.
Relevant Facts
Roberta Adams (plaintiff) filed a claim for benefits with the Industrial Commission (defendant) due to pain developed while working as a telemarketer. Doctors provided conflicting diagnoses about the cause of her symptoms. The Commission affirmed the administrative law judge’s (ALJ) denial of benefits, based on the conclusion that Adams's work did not cause her symptoms, without making detailed findings of fact.
