CompFox AI Summary
Defendant sought reconsideration of an order denying their motion to dismiss, arguing the WCJ erred by not recognizing their new counsel as attorney of record and that the decision lacked substantial evidence. The Appeals Board dismissed the petition for reconsideration because the order denying dismissal was not a final order determining substantive rights or liabilities. The Board cautioned defense counsel about potential sanctions for frivolous tactics and instructed them to familiarize themselves with the Board's rules. The petition for reconsideration was therefore dismissed.
