This case involves determining the applicant's date of injury for an occupational disease. Initially, the Workers' Compensation Judge (WCJ) determined the date of injury to be December 13, 2013, based on medical records suggesting work-related causation. However, the Appeals Board granted reconsideration, finding that the applicant credibly testified that his physician first linked his condition to his employment on May 13, 2013. Therefore, the Board amended the findings to establish May 13, 2013, as the date of injury pursuant to Labor Code section 5412.
