CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the defendant's petition for removal and rescinded the prior order allowing inspection of prison facilities. The Board found the original order was overly broad and improperly directed, ordering that the matter be returned to the trial level. The primary issue to be resolved first is whether the applicant's claimed cancer is presumed to arise out of his employment under Labor Code section 3212.1. Once this presumption issue is decided, a more narrowly focused inspection order can be determined.
