CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the defendant's Petition for Reconsideration because it was taken from a non-final interlocutory order, not a final decision determining substantive rights. The Board also denied the defendant's petition for removal, adopting the Administrative Law Judge's reasoning that no substantial prejudice or irreparable harm was demonstrated. The underlying issue involved an order rescinding the dismissal of a lien claimant's lien, which the defendant sought to overturn. The Board found that rescinding the dismissal was necessary to allow the defendant to pursue their petition for costs and sanctions against the lien claimant.
