Applicant contends that the WCJ erred in limiting the period of her entitlement to vocational rehabilitation maintenance allowance (VRMA) to the period of June 14, 2006 through July 30, 2007 where the treating physician found that applicant was permanent and stationary and medically eligible for vocational rehabilitation benefits and services on July 21, 2003 but defendant failed to timely send her the notices required by Labor Code Section 4636(a). Defendant has not filed an answer to the petition for reconsideration. We have received a Report and Recommendation (Report) from the WCJ recommending that we deny the petition. We note that neither the petition for reconsideration nor the WCJ’s report discussed the effect of the repeal of Labor Code Section 139.5. On April 14, 2009 we granted reconsideration and issued an order allowing amicus briefs in the case of Lawrence Weiner v.
