CompFox AI Summary
This case involves an applicant seeking reconsideration of a Workers' Compensation Appeals Board decision that dismissed his claim. The administrative law judge found the claim barred by the statute of limitations, as it was filed over five years after the alleged date of injury and the last provision of benefits. The applicant's arguments regarding a fraudulent DWC-1 form and doctor's opinions were deemed irrelevant to the statute of limitations issue. The Board dismissed the petition because the applicant failed to demonstrate grounds for reconsideration and did not address the controlling legal issue of the statute of limitations.
