GLADYS ESCOBAR vs. WILES RESTAURANT INC., dba CARL'S JR., CALIFORNIA RESTAURANT MUTUAL BENEFIT CORPORATION

This case was remanded back to the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) by the Fourth District Court of Appeal to reconsider a dismissed lien from Southland Spine and Rehabilitation. The lien was initially dismissed for failure to appear at trial. The WCAB is now granting reconsideration, rescinding the prior order, and returning the matter to the trial judge. The judge must determine the lien's merits and consider imposing sanctions against the lien claimant for their no-show.
