CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed Gina Luttenegger's petition for reconsideration because it was taken from an interlocutory order regarding the disqualification of an agreed medical examiner, not a final determination of substantive rights or liabilities. The Board also denied her petition for removal, finding no substantial prejudice or irreparable harm would result from denial, and that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy if a final adverse decision is issued. The applicant can still request a supplemental report from the AME.
