CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration, amending the original award to defer the issue of applicant's average weekly earnings. The Board found that the applicant's 2013 W-2s were insufficient to accurately determine her 2014 earning capacity at the time of injury. Therefore, the case is returned to the trial level for further development of evidence regarding average weekly earnings. The rest of the original award, including temporary and permanent disability findings, was otherwise affirmed.
