CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed Superior Med Surgical's petition for reconsideration because it was filed against a preliminary notice of intent to dismiss, not a final order. The lien claimant failed to properly file their petition and did not seek reconsideration of the subsequent dismissal order. However, the lien claimant may petition the trial judge to set aside the dismissal, and sanctions should be considered due to their failure to appear at the lien trial.
