CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed Miguel Amador's Petition for Reconsideration. This dismissal was based on the petition's failure to comply with Labor Code section 5902 and relevant WCAB Rules. Specifically, the petition was inadequate because it did not set forth specific details of the grounds for reconsideration, failed to fairly state all material evidence, and lacked specific references to the record. The WCAB adopted the administrative law judge's report, which also would have led to denial on the merits had the procedural defects not resulted in dismissal.
