What was disputed, and how it came out
Each issue the panel decided, with the reasoning it gave. An outcome is what this panel did on this record — not a rule, and not a prediction.
The WCAB panel found that the petition challenged an interlocutory order regarding development of the record, which is not a final order subject to reconsideration, and that the petitioner did not establish substantial prejudice or irreparable harm from the order, thus denial of reconsideration was appropriate.
From the decision · page 6Here, according to the proof of service for the Report and Recommendation by the workers' compensation administrative law judge, the Report was served on January 2, 2025, and the case was transmitted to the Appeals Board on January 2, 2025. Service of the Report and transmission of the case to the Appeals Board occurred on the same day. Thus, we conclude that the parties were provided with the notice of transmission required by section 5909(b)(1) because service of the Report in compliance with section 5909(b)(2) provided them with actual notice as to the commencement of the 60-day period on January 2, 2025.
