CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration, but granted the defendant's petition for removal. The Board found that the applicant's claim for a higher rate of Vocational Rehabilitation Temporary Disability (VRTD) benefits was barred due to a failure to timely appeal a 1992 Rehabilitation Unit decision, thus rescinding the judge's order to take this issue off calendar. The Board also upheld the judge's findings that the applicant's condition became permanent and stationary in February 1993 and that there was no compensable temporary disability from July 2014 to the present, finding insufficient evidence to support the applicant's claims. The applicant was cautioned about potentially being designated a vexatious litigant due to repeated relitigation of settled issues.
