ORDER OF REMAND
Respondent-employer Harding Lawson Associates, Inc., and its insurer, Fireman’s Fund Insurance Companies (Fireman’s respondents), seek review of an order of Administrative Law Judge Friend (ALJ), dated February 4, 1999. We remand the matter for completion of the record.
The ALJ’s order held the Fireman’s respondents liable for temporary disability and medical benefits. On review, the Fireman’s respondents dispute the validity of the ALJ’s findings of fact. A review of the ALJ’s order, the parties’ briefs, and the Petition to Review, indicates the ALJ held a hearing on December 19, 1998, and received transcripts of depositions of Dr. Maruyama and Dr. Greenberg. However, the record does not contain a transcript of the hearing or the transcripts of the depositions.
Under these circumstances, the matter must the remanded for completion of the record by inclusion of a transcript of the hearing and the depositions. The ALJ and the parties should also examine the record to insure it is otherwise complete. Once the record is complete the matter may be retransmitted for our review.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the matter is remanded to the ALJ for completion of the record. Once the record is complete the ALJ may retransmit the matter for our review.
