CompFox AI Summary
Zenith Insurance sought reconsideration of an order requiring it to distribute attorney fees held in trust. Zenith had mistakenly paid the full $6,000 to one attorney, Manuel Martinez, who then failed to fully distribute the funds to the other two attorneys as agreed. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration, finding prior agreements and orders already dictated the fee distribution between the attorneys. Consequently, the Board rescinded the June 10, 2016 order and directed Manuel Martinez to comply with prior court orders for distribution.
