CompFox AI Summary

This case involves a dispute over workers' compensation insurance coverage for Commercial Machineworx Company, LLC (CMC). The State Compensation Insurance Fund (SCIF) seeks to deny coverage, arguing CMC was not listed on the policy and its payroll was not properly reported. However, the Appeals Board found sufficient evidence that CMC was intended to be covered under the policy due to common ownership with other insured entities. The Board also found that payroll for CMC was indeed submitted, and SCIF failed to present contradictory evidence or adequately explain its position on combinability. Therefore, SCIF's petition for reconsideration was denied.
