The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied Republic Indemnity Company's petition for reconsideration. Republic sought to overturn a decision that found its policy provided "other insurance" and relieved CIGA of liability for the applicant's 1999 spinal and extremity injuries. The Board found Republic failed to prove prejudice from CIGA's joinder, despite Republic's claims of record loss due to delay. Furthermore, the Board determined Republic's policy lacked specific exclusions for special employees and therefore provided coverage.
