CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the defendant's Petition for Removal, overturning a prior order that declined to dismiss three lien claims. The Board found that the lien claimants had proper notice and opportunity to object to dismissal, but failed to do so. Consequently, the Board rescinded the prior order and dismissed the lien claims with prejudice. This decision clarifies that bundling lien claimants in a single Notice of Intention to Dismiss does not deny due process if proper notice is provided.
