Federico V. Brannan Sand & Gravel Co‪.‬

In this consolidated unemployment compensation case involving a number of employees, respondent Brannan Sand and Gravel Company (Brannan) appealed decisions of the Industrial Claim Appeals Panel (Panel) that set aside in part hearing officer orders denying unemployment compensation to the employee-petitioners (claimants). The court of appeals consolidated the appeals and, in Brannan Sand & Gravel Co. v Industrial Claim Appeals Office, 762 P.2d 771 (Colo. App. 1988), held that the Panel improperly substituted its own findings of fact for those of the hearing officer and set aside the Panel's orders. We granted certiorari and now affirm the court of appeals and return this case to the court of appeals with directions.
