Defendants Hartford and Southern Insurance Company seek reconsideration of the WCJ's finding of a cumulative trauma injury with a date range. Hartford argues the date of injury should be no later than April 10, 2010, based on applicant's testimony and AME report. Southern contends there are two separate cumulative injuries, with dates of April 2010 and January 8, 2012, requiring separate liability determinations. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration, rescinded the prior findings, and returned the matter to the trial level for further proceedings, emphasizing the need for a single date of injury determination and potential apportionment.
