CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the defendant's petition for reconsideration and denied their petition for removal. The Board found that the WCJ's order to further develop the record regarding the applicant's injuries was an interlocutory procedural order, not a final determination of substantive rights, and therefore not subject to reconsideration. Additionally, the defendant failed to establish the necessary irreparable harm or significant prejudice to warrant removal.
