ROSALIO ESPARZA-SALAS vs. INTERAMERICAN MOTOR CORPORATION, TRAVELERS PROPERTY CASUALTY COMPANY OF AMERICA

This case involves an applicant appealing a decision awarding a lien for the Employment Development Department (EDD). The applicant argued EDD failed to prove its lien was duplicative of permanent disability benefits. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration to further examine the issue. The Board affirmed the original award but deferred the EDD lien, remanding the case for further proceedings to develop evidence on proper notice and potential duplicate payments.
