Here's a summary for a lawyer:
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied Jesus Hernandez's petition for reconsideration, affirming the WCJ's decision that he failed to meet his burden of proof for a cumulative trauma injury ending March 17, 2007. The applicant argued that prior injuries and a doctor's report supported his claim for a longer period, but the Board found his arguments unpersuasive. A dissenting commissioner believed the case should be returned for further proceedings on orthopedic cumulative trauma claims due to disputed employment periods and available evidence.
