The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration of a prior ruling finding no industrial injury AOE/COE. The applicant's testimony regarding a shoulder and psyche injury on April 5, 2011, was found not credible due to inconsistencies with medical records and photographic evidence of subsequent work. The Board also affirmed the finding that the claim was time-barred, as the application was filed over two years after the alleged injury date. The WCJ's credibility determinations, supported by substantial evidence, were upheld.
