CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration and rescinded a prior dismissal order. The original dismissal was issued because lien claimant Able Physical Therapy failed to appear at a lien conference and did not object to a Notice of Intention to Dismiss. However, the WCAB found that the dismissal order erroneously dismissed the entire application, not just Able's lien, which was the scope of the notice. The WCAB also noted that Able claimed a settlement had been reached prior to the conference.
