This case involves a petition for reconsideration by MV Contracting regarding a prior WCJ decision finding industrial injuries and a fatal injury due to a motor vehicle accident. The WCJ excluded the defendant's evidence of a timely denial, presuming the claims compensable and finding the "going and coming rule" inapplicable. The Board affirmed the WCJ's decision, denying the petition for reconsideration. The Board agreed that the employer's submission of a claim form acted as the applicant dependents' agent, satisfying their obligation.
