submission to the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board of a ompromise and Release in the amount of $9,000.00 as settlement of Donald Smith's claim.  We, therefore, request authority to submit said Compromise and Release for approval by the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board, and if so approved, authority to pay $9,000.00 in compliance with the Appeals Board order.
