ERNEST OZUNA vs. TRIPLE S STEEL HOLDINGS, INC.; SENTRY SELECT STEVENS POINT

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration. The applicant sought to challenge a prior Finding and Order regarding the defendant's third-party credit rights against future workers' compensation liability. The Board affirmed the WCJ's determination that the applicant's settlement with a third party did not account for workers' compensation benefits or the purchase of the defendant's lien. Consequently, the defendant's credit rights remain valid for the full amount of benefits paid.
