CompFox AI Summary

Here's a summary of the case for a lawyer, in four sentences:

The applicant, LeRhone Williams, filed a Petition for Disqualification seeking a new judge, alleging bias due to a factual error in a prior report and denial of an examination. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) reviewed the petition, the judge's report, and the applicant's supplemental response. The WCAB found the petition procedurally deficient for lacking a sworn declaration and substantive merit, as alleged errors do not establish bias. Consequently, the WCAB denied the Petition for Disqualification on both procedural and substantive grounds.
