The Board consolidated the three cases due to common issues and granted removal on its own motion. A notice of intention to impose sanctions was issued against the lien claimant and its representative for allegedly filing frivolous petitions and causing unnecessary delay. The Board found the lien claimant's interpretation of Code of Civil Procedure section 1987 regarding compelling witness appearances to be without merit and a pattern of bad-faith conduct.
