MARGARITA GUTIERREZ vs. DYNAMIC DETAILS, INC, ACE FIRE UNDERWRITERS INS. CO., ESIS, THE HARTFORD INS. CO., EVEREST NATIONAL INS. CO., SEDGWICH CMS

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the applicant's petition for reconsideration. The WCJ had previously issued an order vacating the original findings and setting a status conference. This order vacating the decision was issued within the 15-day period allowed for a WCJ to amend, modify, or rescind an award after a petition for reconsideration is filed. Therefore, the applicant's petition for reconsideration became moot and was properly dismissed.
