CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed a petition for reconsideration and denied a petition for removal. The WCAB found the petition for reconsideration improper because it was not taken from a "final" order, but rather an interlocutory procedural or evidentiary decision. Removal was also denied as the petitioner failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm. The Board suggested the WCJ set a conference and advised that an overdue payment dispute should be handled through enforcement, not a new petition.
