CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the defendant's petition for reconsideration, affirming the original decision.

Therefore, the claim is not barred by Labor Code section 3208.3. The Board adopted the workers' compensation judge's report and reasoning in its entirety.
