This case concerns a lien claimant, KVP Pharmacy, seeking reconsideration of a prior order dismissing its lien. KVP Pharmacy argued the dismissal order was invalid due to an unsigned and undated document. However, the Appeals Board dismissed KVP Pharmacy's petition because it was filed approximately six months after the lien dismissal order was served. The Board found the petition to be untimely, as California Labor Code requires reconsideration petitions to be filed within 20 days, plus an additional five days if served by mail. Therefore, the Board lacked jurisdiction to consider the merits of KVP Pharmacy's arguments.
