CompFox AI Summary
The Appeals Board granted reconsideration of an order dismissing lien claimant Dr. Thomas's lien claim. The dismissal occurred after Dr. Thomas and his then-agent failed to appear at a lien conference and a subsequent Notice of Intent to Dismiss (NOI) was not properly served on his agent. The Appeals Board found the petition for reconsideration timely as the dismissal order was not properly served on Dr. Thomas's agent of record. Furthermore, the dismissal order was issued prematurely, before the full 35-day period for a response to the NOI had expired, even with the mail-delay extension. The case is returned to the trial level to determine if Dr. Thomas has good cause to set aside the NOI.
