CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration of an order dismissing a lien claimant's claim. The original order dismissed the lien for failure to timely pay the activation fee, as it was not reflected in EAMS at the time of the lien conference. However, the Appeals Board found that proof of timely payment was subsequently submitted and that the WCJ now has no independent recollection of the conference. Therefore, the Board rescinded the dismissal order and returned the matter for further proceedings to allow the lien claimant to present proof of payment.
