CompFox AI Summary
This case involves a defendant's attempt to remove or reconsider a finding that the medical evidence was insufficient to establish industrial causation for the applicant's injury. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the petition for reconsideration because the order to develop the record was not a final determination of substantive rights. The petition for removal was denied because a finding of industrial causation requires identification of at least one body part, which was not yet established. The Board adopted the WCJ's report and reasoning in its decision.
