CompFox AI Summary
This case involves a worker's compensation claim for an admitted industrial injury sustained in 2000. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration of a prior ruling that dismissed CIGA and found Fireman's Fund liable. The WCAB rescinded the prior decision and returned the matter to the trial level for further development of the record. This is necessary because neither party provided sufficient evidence, specifically insurance policies, to determine if Fireman's Fund coverage constitutes "other insurance" which would affect CIGA's liability.
