CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the applicant's petition for reconsideration because the underlying WCJ decision was not a "final" order, as it only addressed an intermediate procedural or evidentiary issue. The Board also denied the applicant's petition for removal, finding no substantial prejudice or irreparable harm, and that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy later if needed. This means the case is not yet decided on substantive rights or liabilities. The applicant's attempts to appeal an interim ruling were thus unsuccessful.
