CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the applicant's petition for reconsideration, rescinding a prior decision. The Board found that the issue of a Labor Code section 4658(d) permanent disability benefit increase could not have been determined at the initial trial because the applicant's permanent and stationary status was still contested. Consequently, the matter is remanded to the trial judge for further proceedings to determine if the applicant is entitled to this benefit increase.
