Eduviges Acosta vs. Intercontinental Art Inc.; Pacific Compensation Insurance F

This case involves lien claimants Advanced Medical Supplies and Zee Medical Management, represented by Sun Life Funding Corporation, who are seeking reconsideration of the separate July 1, 2011 Orders Dismissing Liens issued by the workers' compensation administrative law judge. The lien claimants argue that they never received notice that the cancelled December 29, 2010 lien trial was rescheduled for March 21, 2011. The Petition for Reconsideration was denied as the lien claimants failed to provide evidence that they did not receive notice of the rescheduled hearing and failed to provide any authority that entitles them to a phone call when they fail to appear at trial.
