KEVIN SMITH vs. CC GLASS, CLARK CONSTRUCTION, ZURICH LOS ANGELES for CLARK CONSTRUCTION

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the defendant's Petition for Reconsideration in the case of Kevin Smith v. CC Glass (special employer) and Clark Construction (general employer). The Board adopted the WCJ's reasoning, finding that the defendant failed to diligently pursue discovery, particularly by attempting to depose Dr. Greenspan for the first time at trial. The defendant also did not provide evidence that industrial causation was an issue presented to Dr. Greenspan for his supplemental report. Therefore, the petition for reconsideration was denied.
