CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed Adam Arista's petition for reconsideration against Nestle USA and its insurers. The WCAB found the petition untimely, as it was filed more than 25 days after the Administrative Law Judge's decision was served. California law dictates that a petition for reconsideration must be received by the WCAB within the statutory time limit, which is jurisdictional. Proof of mailing alone is insufficient to meet this deadline.
