CompFox AI Summary

This case concerns Travis Riel's workers' compensation claim for a 2007 spinal injury. The Appeals Board dismissed Riel's petition for reconsideration as premature, as it concerned a non-final order regarding EDD reimbursement, and Riel failed to serve EDD. The Board denied the defendant's petition, affirming the finding that Riel sustained new and further permanent disability, and that his claim was not barred by the statute of limitations. The WCJ's conditional order for EDD reimbursement was not a final determination and Riel is not yet liable to reimburse EDD.
