CompFox AI Summary
The WCAB dismissed Shandler & Associates' petition for reconsideration because it was filed against an interlocutory order (Notice of Intent to Dismiss Liens), not a final order. Even if treated as a removal petition, it was denied due to a lack of demonstrated significant prejudice or irreparable harm. The Board, however, removed the case on its own motion to consider sanctions against Shandler & Associates for filing a frivolous petition. Sanctions of $250.00 are proposed for bad-faith litigation tactics, payable to the General Fund.
