LAURA HUESCA vs. LOS ANGELES COUNTY

Filed: Sep 19, 2011
ADJ3703279

CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed a lien claimant's petition for reconsideration because it was filed in response to a Notice of Intention to Dismiss Lien, not a final order. The WCAB clarified that no order dismissing the lien had actually been issued. The WCAB directed the matter back to the trial level, where the petition can be considered as the lien claimant's showing of good cause against dismissal. Therefore, the lien claimant is not yet aggrieved and has no final order from which to seek reconsideration.
