CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration to amend a previous decision. The Board found that the "going and coming rule" does not bar the applicant's claim. However, the issue of whether the injury arose out of and occurred in the course of employment (AOE/COE) was not litigated at trial. Therefore, the Board deferred the AOE/COE issue, allowing parties to proceed with it later if ready.
