CompFox AI Summary
The Appeals Board granted reconsideration and rescinded the WCJ's decision, returning the matter for further proceedings. The Board found that the WCJ erred by ruling on the reasonableness and necessity of lien claimant's services without that issue being properly noticed or addressed at trial, thereby violating due process. The original decision improperly determined liability based on this unlitigated issue. The case will now proceed to trial with a proper evidentiary record and decision.
