CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration and rescinded a WCJ's order dismissing a lien claimant's lien. This dismissal was based on the lien claimant's failure to timely pay the lien activation fee required by Labor Code section 4903.06. However, a federal court injunction in Angelotti Chiropractic v. Baker had enjoined enforcement of these fee provisions. Consequently, the matter was returned to the WCJ for further proceedings and a decision in light of the injunction.
