CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the applicant's petition for reconsideration because it was not filed from a "final" order, but rather an interlocutory procedural decision. The Board also denied the applicant's petition for removal, finding no substantial prejudice or irreparable harm would result, and that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy if a final adverse decision were issued. The WCJ's reasoning, incorporated by the Board, supported both dismissals. Applicant's request to file supplemental pleadings was accepted.
