JESSE STONE ORDONAZ vs. BURGER KING STEVENSON RESTAURANTS, WESCO INSURANCE COMPANY, AMTRUST NORTH AMERICA, CALIFORNIA FOOD MANAGEMENT, LLC, MITSUI SUMITOMO

The applicant, Jesse Stone Ordonaz, a declared vexatious litigant, filed a petition for removal after the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCJ) rejected their applications for adjudication. The rejection was based on the applicant's failure to comply with a pre-filing order requiring permission to file new applications. The applicant alleged fraud in a prior Compromise and Release and sought to relitigate claims. The Appeals Board denied the petition for removal, affirming the WCJ's decision because the applicant failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm and did not abide by the vexatious litigant order.
