Description

This case presents the issue as to whether, in making its decision to compromise its lien for reimbursement, the Department of Labor and Industries (Department) erred as a matter of law in considering the fact the injured worker had already settled his third party claim. We hold that RCW 51.24.060(3) provides discretion to the Department in making such a decision. As long as the Department considers the factors set forth in the statute, it is not error for the Department to consider the fact the parties have already settled.
