The WCAB granted the State Compensation Insurance Fund's (SCIF) petition for reconsideration. The SCIF sought to change the date of injury for applicant Harriet Zinger's orthopedic injury. While the WCJ initially set the date of injury as February 17, 2001, based on her first temporary disability, the SCIF argued for September 2, 2000. The WCAB affirmed the WCJ's decision on the date of injury and the period of liability. However, they amended the dismissal order to correctly identify Superior National Insurance, in liquidation, as a dismissed defendant.
