The Appeals Board dismissed the defendant's petition for reconsideration because it was not filed from a final order. The Board granted removal, rescinded the WCJ's orders vacating submission and ordering a work evaluation, and returned the matter to the trial level. This action was taken because the WCJ erred in determining the applicable permanent disability rating schedule. The case will be returned for further proceedings and a pre-trial conference to address the correct rating schedule.
