9th Cir.
08-71719
The court of appeals affirmed an order of the Benefits Review Board in part, reversed in part, and remanded the action for further proceedings. The court held that interest on past due payments under the Longshore and Harbor Workers Compensation Act should be calculated under 28 U.S.C. §1961. The court held further that such interest had to be computed at a compound, rather than simple, rate of interest.
