CompFox AI Summary
This Workers' Compensation Appeals Board case resulted in the dismissal of the applicant's Petition for Reconsideration due to untimeliness. The Board found that the petition was filed more than twenty-five days after the service of the Workers' Compensation Judge's decision. California law establishes this twenty-five-day limit as jurisdictional, meaning the Board cannot consider an untimely petition. Even if the petition had been timely, it would have been denied on the merits based on the judge's report.
