CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration of a prior decision. The applicant claimed industrial injury as a Department Manager for Wal-Mart, but the administrative law judge found she failed to meet her burden of proof. This decision was affirmed, as the Appeals Board found the Agreed Medical Evaluator's opinion that the applicant's conditions were age-related and not work-aggravated constituted substantial evidence. Consequently, no further issues, including statute of limitations arguments, were addressed.
