CompFox AI Summary

This case involves a petition for reconsideration of an order by a Workers' Compensation Judge (WCJ). The Appeals Board dismissed the petition because reconsideration is only permitted for final orders that dispose of substantive rights and liabilities. The WCJ's order to "pay, adjust or litigate" all liens did not definitively resolve these substantive matters. Therefore, the order was considered interlocutory and not subject to reconsideration.
