CompFox AI Summary
Here's a summary for a lawyer in four sentences:
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration for lien claimant Cole Chiropractic's petition regarding applicant Julie Patterson's claim against Safeway Inc. The Board adopted the Administrative Law Judge's (ALJ) report, which found that the lien claimant waived issues concerning service of medical reports by failing to raise them before reconsideration. The ALJ also determined that the applicant failed to establish a compensable cumulative injury, and the lien claimant sought reimbursement for treatment for a non-compensable condition outside the statutory liability window. Ultimately, the Board found the Agreed Medical Examiner's opinion more persuasive and denied the lien claimant's request for payment.
