CompFox AI Summary

This case involves an applicant's petition for reconsideration of a WCJ's order terminating liability for temporary disability. The WCJ found the applicant permanent and stationary based on the Agreed Medical Evaluator's (AME) opinion, despite the applicant's claims of pending shoulder surgery. The Appeals Board denied reconsideration, upholding the WCJ's decision due to the applicant's inconsistent testimony regarding surgery delays and failure to provide evidence of the alleged surgery or its complications. Furthermore, the petition was procedurally deficient, lacking proper service, specific legal arguments, and evidence of newly discovered material.
