The WCAB granted a petition for removal and rescinded the order changing venue to investigate whether the defendant received proper notice and an opportunity to object to the venue change. This due process concern arose because there was no proof of service for the notice of intent to change venue. The matter was returned to the Presiding WCJ for further proceedings.
