CompFox AI Summary
The Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration, affirming the award of 94% permanent disability, while granting the defendant's petition solely to correct the start date for increased permanent disability payments under Labor Code section 4658(d). This increase will now commence on March 16, 2013, rather than an earlier date, adjusting the calculation of indemnity. The Board found the WCJ's detailed reports cured any initial inadequacies in explaining the permanent disability rating and apportionment.
