CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the defendant's petition for removal of an order taking the case off calendar. The original order allowed the applicant to develop the record regarding causation for her alleged psychiatric injury as a consequence of an admitted cervical spine injury. The Board found no significant prejudice or irreparable harm to the defendant, noting that further development of the medical record regarding the psychiatric condition was warranted given recent medical reports. Reconsideration would be an adequate remedy after a final order on these issues.
