CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) rescinded the previous Findings and Order and returned the case for further proceedings. The WCAB found that the original ruling erroneously barred claims for the applicant's left shoulder, knees, and feet due to the statute of limitations. Applicant's contention that the employer failed to provide claim forms and notice, which could toll the statute, requires further examination. The WCAB also ordered a review of the applicant's right shoulder, hand, and thumb injury claim.
