CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the defendant's Petition for Removal. This extraordinary remedy was denied because the defendant failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm. The Board affirmed the denial of the defendant's second Petition for Dismissal, finding it improper as a new notice was required after the applicant's opportunity to show good cause had already passed. The case will return to the trial calendar, where it should be dismissed unless the applicant shows good cause.
