CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the applicant's Petition for Reconsideration because it was filed from interlocutory orders concerning procedural and evidentiary matters, not a "final" order determining substantive rights. The Board reasoned that such pre-trial rulings do not resolve any fundamental questions of liability or entitlement. Furthermore, the Petition for Removal was denied, as the applicant failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm justifying immediate intervention. Consequently, the Board found no grounds for either reconsideration or removal.
