CompFox AI Summary
This case concerns the defendant's petition for reconsideration of a prior Board decision. The Board previously affirmed the dates of temporary disability for the applicant but amended the original award to grant the full value of temporary disability indemnity, rather than an apportioned percentage. The defendant argued against this full award, but the Board found that while liability for indemnity can be apportioned between defendants, an employee's entitlement to temporary disability indemnity cannot be apportioned. The Board denied the petition for reconsideration, reaffirming that the defendant is solely liable for the full value of temporary disability indemnity.
