Here's a summary of the case for a lawyer in four sentences:
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration of an order dismissing a lien claimant's lien for failure to appear at a scheduled conference. The lien claimant failed to respond to a Notice of Intention to Dismiss (NIT) after not appearing, and their petition for reconsideration did not dispute the defendant's proper proof of service of the NIT. The Appeals Board upheld the dismissal, citing the presumption of receipt of properly mailed documents and the lien claimant's failure to establish good cause for their non-appearance or for the lien to be reinstated. The Board also admonished the lien claimant for failing to comply with form requirements for their petition.
