Jorge Rivera Lopez vs. Stoneledge Furniture, Llc.; Hartford

: This case involves a workers' compensation claim by Jorge Rivera Lopez against Stoneledge Furniture, LLC. and Hartford. The case was settled by a compromise and release, and four lien claimants filed liens under Labor Code §4903 (b). At the Lien Conference, their liens were dismissed with prejudice for failure to pay the lien activation fees. The lien claimants then filed a Petition for Reconsideration, which was denied by the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board. The Board found that the dismissal was in accordance with the Labor Code, and that the Board was without power to declare a statute unconstitutional.
