CompFox AI Summary
This case involves a workers' compensation claim where the applicant sustained an injury while employed by both a general employer (Remedy) and a special employer (Advanced). Remedy's insurer, Reliance, became insolvent, leading CIGA to assume potential liability. The WCJ found that Advanced's insurer, SCIF, provided "other insurance" under Insurance Code § 1063.1(c)(9), thus relieving CIGA of responsibility. The Appeals Board denied SCIF's reconsideration, affirming that SCIF's policy constituted "other insurance" and that CIGA is a last resort insurer.
