CompFox AI Summary
Here's a summary for a lawyer in maximum four sentences: Hartford Insurance sought removal of an order requiring it to administer the applicant's future medical award for all body parts. Hartford argued this would cause irreparable harm by potentially barring reimbursement from CIGA for neck injury treatment, for which Hartford claims no current liability. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied removal, adopting the judge's reasoning that potential prejudice to Hartford was outweighed by applicant's need for a single administrator and the judge's discretion to assign administration pending adjudication of neck injury liability. Commissioner Lowe dissented, arguing Hartford faces substantial prejudice and potential liability for an injury it did not insure.
