BLANCA VILLATORO vs. BEYOND SHELTERS, INC., OAK RIVER INSURANCE COMPANY, BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY HOMESTATE COMPANIES

This case involves an untimely Petition for Reconsideration filed by the applicant. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the petition because it was filed over twenty days after the WCJ's decision was personally served. Because the decision was personally served, no mailing extension applied, making the filing unequivocally late. The Board also noted potential sanctions for factual misrepresentations within the petition.
