CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration of a Joint Findings and Award. Subsequently, the parties submitted a Compromise and Release agreement, leaving applicant's future medical treatment open. As the WCAB cannot approve settlements while a case is pending reconsideration, it rescinded the prior award and remanded the matter to the WCJ. The WCJ is now tasked with considering the settlement and conducting further proceedings as necessary. This action does not rule on the merits of the reconsideration petitions; if the settlement is not approved, the prior decision can be reinstated.
