CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration of a previous award because it was "skeletal," lacking specific references to the record and legal principles. Furthermore, the applicant's amended petition was filed seven days after the statutory deadline, and supplemental petitions require prior Board approval, which was not obtained. The Board concluded that the amended petition would not be considered, even as a supplemental filing, as it appeared to be an attempt to extend the filing period.
