This case concerns George Digerolamo's entitlement to temporary total disability (TTD) indemnity for left knee injuries sustained before April 19, 2004. The defendant sought reconsideration, arguing that Labor Code sections 4656(c)(1) and 4656(b) limited the TTD payments. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration, affirming that because Digerolamo's injuries predated April 19, 2004, the limitations on TTD duration did not apply. The Board also confirmed jurisdiction to award TTD commencing more than five years after the date of injury when the issue remained unresolved.
