Dora Sosa, Gerardo Sosa vs. West Coast Computer Exchanges, Inc.; Everest National Insurance Company

Applicant Dora Sosa and Gerardo Sosa sought workers' compensation for injuries sustained on January 25, 2005, to the head, neck, right shoulder, and psyche while employed by West Coast Computer Exchanges, Inc., insured by Everest National Insurance Company. The Workers' Compensation Administrative Law Judge (WCJ) issued Findings of Fact, Awards and Orders on December 19, 2024, finding various points in favor of the applicant, including 65% permanent partial disability and temporary disability indemnity. Defendant petitioned for reconsideration, arguing against the WCJ's findings regarding the disability rating, temporary disability indemnity rate, duration of temporary disability, reimbursement for chiropractic treatment, and EDD's lien. The Appeals Board granted the defendant's petition for reconsideration, deferring a final decision pending further review of the merits and the entire record, citing several issues that require more examination.
