CompFox AI Summary
This case concerns an applicant's petition for reconsideration of a WCJ's decision that he was an independent contractor, not an employee, and therefore not entitled to workers' compensation benefits. The Board is dismissing the petition as untimely, as it was filed 33 days after the WCJ's August 2, 2012 decision and service. Applicant's counsel's claim of relying on a later service date from the defendant is insufficient to overcome the official record of timely service. Consequently, the Board lacks jurisdiction to review the petition on its merits.
