CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration and amended the award, deferring the determination of the applicant's permanent and stationary date. The original award of permanent disability and attorney's fees was based on an incorrect date, and the applicant did not have proper notice that this issue would be decided. The Board is returning the case to the trial level to gather medical evidence and properly determine the permanent and stationary date, which will then allow for recalculation of the permanent disability award and attorney's fees.
