CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the Petition for Reconsideration. The Board adopted the Workers' Compensation Administrative Law Judge's (WCJ) report, which found the applicant lacked credibility due to inconsistencies in her testimony and medical histories. The WCJ determined the applicant failed to prove her injury arose out of and occurred in the course of employment (AOE-COE) due to unsubstantiated medical evidence and her job duties not being physically arduous as claimed. The Board gave great weight to the WCJ's credibility determinations, finding no substantial evidence to warrant rejection.
