MARC EBERLE vs. HIGH DESERT STATE PRISON STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND

In this case, Marc Eberle filed a Petition for Reconsideration of the September 23, 2010 Order of Dismissal issued by the workers' compensation administrative law judge (WCJ). The Petition was dismissed because it was filed more than three years after the Order of Dismissal. The Petition also sought reconsideration of the statute of limitations defense, but the Appeals Board found that there had been no final determination regarding the statute of limitations and that applicant was not aggrieved by any issue related to the statute of limitations at this time. The Appeals Board also dismissed the Petition with respect to the briefing schedule set forth by the WCJ.
