CompFox AI Summary
This case involves two lien claimants whose liens were dismissed for failing to pay an activation fee prior to trial. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration, finding that Labor Code section 4903.06 only requires proof of payment of the fee at a lien conference, not a subsequent trial. Because the lien conference occurred in 2012 and the trial in 2013, the lien claimants were not required to pay the fee prior to trial. The WCAB rescinded the dismissal orders and returned the matter for further proceedings.
