CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the State Compensation Insurance Fund's (SCIF) petition for reconsideration because it was not filed from a final order, as the Board had previously granted reconsideration and remanded the case for further proceedings. The Board also found that the California Insurance Guarantee Association (CIGA) had cured any verification defects in its petition. SCIF's arguments regarding the WCA's denial of contribution and SCIF's coverage as "other insurance" were also addressed and found unpersuasive in light of the procedural dismissal.
