SHERYLL HICKS vs. KERN COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS; SELF INSURED SCHOOLS BAKERSFIELD

This case concerns an applicant's appeal of a workers' compensation award for industrial injuries to her lumbar spine and psyche. The applicant contended the defendant failed to pay the permanent disability award correctly and disputed the temporary disability end date. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration to correct a clerical error in the original findings of fact regarding injuries to other body parts. The Board affirmed the WCJ's decision, including the $6%$ permanent disability for the lumbar spine and $100%$ for the psyche.
