CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the applicant's Petitions for Reconsideration because they were filed from interlocutory orders, not final decisions determining substantive rights. Furthermore, the WCAB denied the applicant's Petitions for Removal as she failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm. Both petitions sought to strike a QME report, which is not a final appealable order. Consequently, the WCAB upheld the WCJ's findings.
