CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the Applicant's Petition for Reconsideration. The Applicant sought reconsideration of the Workers' Compensation Judge's (WCJ) finding that he did not sustain an injury arising out of and in the course of employment. The Board adopted the WCJ's report, which relied on credibility determinations and found the Applicant's account of injury by a co-worker's grab or lift to be unsubstantiated by evidence. The Board gave great weight to the WCJ's credibility findings, which is a standard in workers' compensation appeals.
