Dennis Sanchez vs. CITY OF FRESNO, Permissibly Self-Insured

This case involves a workers' compensation claim for industrial injury to the applicant's right shoulder and a subsequent claim for psychiatric injury as a consequence. The defendant sought reconsideration of the original award, arguing that the medical opinion supporting the psychiatric injury was not substantial evidence and that the employment events were not the predominant cause. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration, primarily to correct a clerical error regarding the duration of temporary total disability benefits, otherwise affirming the original decision.
