Case No. ADJ8135615 ORDER DISMISSING PETITION FOR RECONSIDERATION We have considered the allegations of the Petition for Reconsideration and the contents of the report of the workers’ compensation administrativelaw judge (WCJ) with respect thereto. Based on our review of the record, the petition is untimely and must be dismissed. There are 25 days allowed within which to file a petition for reconsideration from a “final” decision that has been served by mail upon an addressin California. (Lab. Code,§§ 5900(a), 5903; Cal. Code Regs., tit. 8, § 10507(a)(l ).) This time limit is extended to the next business day if the last day for filing falls on a weekend or holiday. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 8, § 10508.) To be timely, however, a petition for reconsideration must be filed with (i.e., received by) the WCAB within the time allowed; proof that the petition was mailed (posted) within that period is insufficient. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 8, §§ 10845(a),10392(a).) This time limit is jurisdictional and, therefore, the Appeals Board has no authority to consider or act upon an untimely petition for reconsideration.(Maranian v. Workers’ Comp. Appeals Bd.
