RICARDO ZAMBRANO vs. LA PINATA MEXICAN RESTAURANT, ZENITH INSURANCE COMPANY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration of a dismissal order that had terminated a lien claimant's claim for failing to provide proof of a lien activation fee payment. The Board found that the lien claimant did, in fact, pay the required fee. Consequently, the Board rescinded the dismissal order and returned the matter for further proceedings, while admonishing the lien claimant for failing to appear at the scheduled lien conference. The Board also suggested the judge consider sanctions for the no-show.
