; SFO0409188
In this case, Roseanne Guild, a registered nurse, sustained an industrial injury to her low back and psyche while employed on February 17, 1996. The Workers’ Compensation Administrative Law Judge found that her injury caused permanent total disability (100%) and that her permanent disability was not subject to apportionment. Kaiser Permanente/Kaiser Foundation Hospital and Kaiser Foundation Health Plan filed a petition for reconsideration of the Findings, Award in Orders issued by the WCJ, but the petition was dismissed as untimely. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration on its own motion to afford them a sufficient opportunity to further study the factual and legal issues in the case.
