This appeal arises pursuant to the Texas Workers’ Compensation Act, TEX. LAB. CODE ANN. § 401.001 et seq. (1989 Act). A contested case hearing was held on April 27, 2001. The hearing officer determined that there was no bona fide offer of employment tendered to respondent (claimant) and that claimant had disability beginning on August 22, 2000, through January 11, 2001. The self-insured (carrier herein) appealed the determination that there was no bona fide offer. The hearing officer’s disability determination has not been appealed and has become final. The file does not contain a response from claimant.
DECISION
We affirm.
We have reviewed the complained-of determination and conclude that there was no reversible error in this case. Even if there had been a bona fide offer, carrier was not aggrieved by the decision. Because the hearing officer found there was no disability after January 11, 2001, there were no temporary income benefits for any offset to apply to in the case of a bona fide offer. We perceive no reversible error.
We affirm the hearing officer’s decision and order.
