Since due process clearly prevented amendment of the pending claim over objection and required that wage loss be excluded from the hearing then in progress, that claim was not "ripe for adjudication," Crown Hotel , at 419, and its exclusion or omission from the hearing does not prejudice either the finality of the order for appeal purposes or the right to pursue the claim thereafter.

WENTWORTH, Judge.

Employer/carrier appeal a workers' compensation order which patently does not dispose of all matured issues in controversy between the parties. The date of maximum medical improvement having been set, the issue of wage loss was ripe for adjudication. The deputy commissioner's decision to withhold determination of that issue renders the order interlocutory and non-appealable. Town of Palm Beach v. Watts, 7 FLW 1330, Case No. AG-291 (Fla. 1st DCA 1982).

The appeal is therefore dismissed sua sponte without prejudice to seek review of the order in the event of an appeal from a final order on the claim.

McCORD and BOOTH, JJ., concur.
