The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration to clarify that the issue of applicant Jaime Silva's shoulder injury was deferred, not fully adjudicated. The original findings only addressed lumbar and cervical spine injuries, consistent with the trial being set for "AOE/COE only." This decision effectively rescinds and substitutes the previous findings to explicitly state that all other issues, including additional body parts, are deferred. The Board also cautioned defense counsel regarding improper filing practices.
