CompFox AI Summary
The Appeals Board granted reconsideration of the WCJ's four separate awards, rescinded them, and returned the case for further proceedings. The decision was based on deficiencies in the record, specifically the failure to create an adequate record that clearly outlines submitted issues, stipulations, and admitted evidence, as required by Hamilton v. Lockheed. Consequently, the Appeals Board cannot ascertain the basis of the original decision and remands the matter for proper record development and a new ruling by the WCJ.
