CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration of four prior decisions. The Board affirmed the findings of injury to the applicant's right shoulder in three cases (ADJ4678016, ADJ543807, ADJ1072800), finding the permanent disability percentages as determined by the WCJ. However, the Board rescinded the decision in ADJ8135564, ruling that the applicant's 1992 injury claim was not barred by the statute of limitations based on his testimony of filing worker's compensation paperwork at the time. All remaining issues, including the extent of injury to additional body parts and the admission of a vocational expert report, are deferred for further proceedings at the trial level.
