CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the lien claimant's petition for reconsideration, finding their petition was timely due to defective service of the original order. The Board rescinded the prior order, which awarded the lien claimant $250, because there was no adequate record or substantial evidence to support it. Specifically, no evidence was admitted, and the WCJ failed to provide findings of fact or an opinion explaining the rationale. The case is returned to the trial level for further proceedings to establish a proper record and support any subsequent decision.
