CompFox AI Summary

Applicant Blas Marin's petition for reconsideration of the Compromise and Release (C&R) is denied as untimely filed, though issues regarding fraud in the C&R execution can be pursued via a petition to reopen for good cause. Lien claimant Southern California Mental Health & Assessment Centers/Azadeh Rahimi, Ph.D.'s petition for reconsideration is granted because the Workers' Compensation Judge (WCJ) improperly disallowed the lien without following proper procedure. The WCJ's order disallowing the lien is rescinded, and the matter is returned for further proceedings. Applicant's counsel was substituted on January 22, 2010, rendering previous filings by former counsel invalid.
