CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration, rescinded the prior decision, and returned the case to the trial level. The Board found that the applicant provided sufficient notice to her uninsured employer regarding the July 18, 2002 incident where a sink piece fell on her foot. This notice, even without an immediate claim for injury, preserved her claim from being barred by Labor Code Section 3600 due to her termination.
