CompFox AI Summary

The Appeals Board granted reconsideration, amending the original award to commence permanent total disability payments on March 20, 2010, rather than December 19, 2011. The Board affirmed the finding of 100% permanent disability but returned the matter for the trial judge to recalculate the applicant's attorney's fee. This recalculation must consider a cost of living adjustment (COLA) using a uniformly increasing reduction method and a reasonable predicted State Average Weekly Wage (SAWW) increase.
