CompFox AI Summary

The Appeals Board granted reconsideration, finding that the dependents of the deceased worker were not provided a meaningful opportunity to be heard before CIGA and the insolvent insurer were dismissed. The prior dismissal order is rescinded due to this due process violation. The case is returned to the trial level for further proceedings before a new WCJ, allowing the dependents to present their objections. A reasoned decision on CIGA's dismissal request will then be issued.
