TEENA WIGGINS vs. TREAT’S GENERAL STORE And GROCERS INSURANCE COMPANY

This case involves Teena Wiggins, who filed a Petition for Reconsideration against Treat's General Store and Grocers Insurance Company. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board considered the allegations of the Petition for Reconsideration and the contents of the Report and Recommendation on Petition for Reconsideration of the workers' compensation administrative law judge. The Board dismissed the petition because it was not timely-filed, and had it been timely-filed, it would have been denied on the merits. The Board also noted that Ms. Wiggins may wish to contact the Information and Assistance Office for an explanation of her options.
