ERROL GRIFFIN vs. COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, Permissibly Self-Insured, Administered By TRISTAR RISK MANAGEMENT

This case involves a dispute over the applicant's average weekly wage (AWW) for temporary disability benefits. Initially, the parties stipulated to an AWW of $1,676.04, but the defendant sought reconsideration based on mutual mistake, claiming the correct AWW was $859.16. Subsequently, both parties filed an amended stipulation agreeing to an AWW of $800.07. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration to defer the issue of temporary disability indemnity and returned the matter to the WCJ to consider the amended stipulation and determine the correct benefits.
