CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the self-insured employer's petition for reconsideration, affirming the arbitrator's decision. The Board found that the employer's petition for reimbursement from Travelers Insurance was untimely filed more than one year after the original award, and therefore outside the Board's jurisdiction. The original award, which found the employer legally uninsured at the time of injury, is now final.
