CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed applicant Gary Seabrooks' numerous petitions because they were filed without a corresponding final determination. The WCAB removed the case on its own motion to address Seabrooks' pattern of repeatedly filing unmeritorious and harassing documents, which has consumed significant board resources. Consequently, the WCAB has issued a notice of intention to declare Seabrooks a vexatious litigant and impose a prefiling order, restricting his ability to file future documents without prior leave. This action is intended to prevent further abuse of the workers' compensation system and allow for the expeditious resolution of other parties' cases.
