CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed a lien claimant's petition for reconsideration. The petition sought to challenge a Notice of Intention to Dismiss Lien, which was not a final order. Reconsideration can only be sought from final orders that determine substantive rights or threshold issues, not interlocutory procedural decisions. Therefore, the WCAB found the petition premature and dismissed it, suggesting the lien claimant instead file an objection to the Notice of Intention.
