CompFox AI Summary
This case involves multiple petitions stemming from an administrative law judge's rescission of a previously approved Compromise and Release. The Appeals Board dismissed Security National's petitions as they were not a party to the original agreement and dismissed Employers Comp's petition due to withdrawal. Insurance Company of the West's reconsideration petition was dismissed as interlocutory, but its removal petition was granted to address due process concerns. The Board amended the rescission order to require a hearing on whether the original settlement should be rescinded, returning the case to the WCJ for further proceedings.
