CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed Rosa Uhles's petition for reconsideration because it was not filed from a final order, as the WCJ's decision to take the matter off calendar was procedural. The WCAB also denied Uhles's petition for removal, finding no evidence of substantial prejudice or irreparable harm that would warrant this extraordinary remedy. Removal was denied because reconsideration remains an adequate remedy should an adverse final decision ultimately be issued. Therefore, both the petition for reconsideration and the petition for removal were dismissed and denied, respectively.
