MICHAEL WYANT vs. GEA MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT US, INC., ZURICH AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the applicant's petition for reconsideration of an order denying his request to rescind a stipulated award. The Board found that the applicant was entitled to a hearing on his petition and that the original order lacked the required factual basis and reasoning. Consequently, the Board rescinded the denial order and returned the case to the trial level for further proceedings. This ensures the applicant receives a fair hearing and a decision supported by the record.
