CompFox AI Summary

Here is a summary of the case in four sentences for a lawyer:

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration, overturning the finding that the applicant was not entitled to temporary disability indemnity for the period of January 6, 2009, to September 18, 2010. The Board found the applicant to be temporarily totally disabled during this period, correcting the prior decision that relied on an employer termination without sufficient proof of cause. Consequently, the Employment Development Department is now entitled to full reimbursement of its lien claim for state disability payments made to the applicant. Otherwise, the original decision awarding permanent disability and further medical treatment was affirmed.
