CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the defendant's petition for reconsideration as interlocutory procedural orders are not final and thus not subject to reconsideration. The Board also denied the defendant's petition for removal, finding no evidence of irreparable harm and that the defendant failed to provide sufficient proof to support joinder of a concurrent employer. The defendant may refile for joinder with proper supporting evidence.
