DAWN MESSI vs. STEPHEN MITNICK, STATE FARM FIRE & CASUALTY, CUNNINGHAM & LANDSEN, STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND, VAN SICKLE & ROWLEY, EMPLOYERS COMPENSATION INSURANCE COMPANY

This case involves a lien claimant, Westlake Spine & Outpatient Surgery Center, seeking reconsideration of an order denying its lien and imposing sanctions on its attorney. The Appeals Board rescinded the original findings, finding that the lien claimant may not have received adequate notice of the hearing and was thus denied due process. The matter is returned to the WCJ for a new hearing on the merits of the lien claim and the sanctions issue, with proper notice and opportunity to be heard for all parties.
