Previously, on September 11, 2008, the WCJ issued a Notice of Intention to Disallow Lien Claim(s). In the underlying matter, applicant’s claim that she sustained industrial injury to her back, neck, wrist, arms and shoulders while employed as an assembler from April 2002 through April 8, 2003, was resolved by compromise and release on August 21, 2007. Lien claimant contends that the WCJ should not have issued the October 22, 2008 Order Dismissing Lien Claim(s), arguing that “there was no showing that lien claimant was not in compliance with Title 8, California Code of Regulations Section 10562” because its representative was available by telephone to resolve its lien. Lien claimant argues that it did not receive the September 11, 2008 Notice of Intention to Disallow Lien Claim(s) from its prior representative and was denied the ability to object to it. Defendant has filed an “Objection to Petition for Reconsideration” (answer).
