ELIAS GOMEZ vs. LA PALOMA RESTAURANT, INC., EMPLOYERS COMPENSATION INSURANCE CO.

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration, rescinded a dismissal of lien claim, and returned the matter to the WCJ for further proceedings. This followed the WCAB's finding that the lien claimant may not have received notice of the lien conference, raising due process concerns. The WCAB noted that the original lien conference notice did not list the lien claimant or its representative. The Board also advised clarifying the status of duplicate liens and the relationship between the lien claimant and its representative.
