ADJ10117535

CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration and rescinded the trial judge's decision, remanding the case to the trial level. The original decision found no injury AOE/COE but lacked sufficient explanation and failed to address all issues. Critically, the WCAB found the trial record inadequate, noting a lack of medical evidence on causation and an incomplete analysis of the applicant's credibility issues. The matter will be reassigned to a new WCJ for further proceedings.
