CompFox AI Summary
The applicant seeks reconsideration of an administrative law judge's order continuing a hearing. The Appeals Board dismissed the petition because the order of continuance was not a final order, and thus not subject to reconsideration under Labor Code section 5900(a). Any request to reconsider the 1998 order of dismissal would be untimely as it was filed nearly 17 years late, and such dismissals can generally only be set aside for extrinsic fraud or mistake. The applicant was cautioned about potential sanctions for frivolous filings.
