CompFox AI Summary
Applicant Linda Lewis Zamba sought reconsideration of a WCJ's order from June 12, 2025, which dismissed two of her three case numbers and denied a re-evaluation by QME Dr. Weiss. The Appeals Board treated her petition for removal as one for reconsideration, finding that the WCJ's dismissal order determined a 'threshold' issue. The Board granted the petition, rescinded the WCJ's June 9, 2025, decision, and returned the matter to the trial level. The Board concluded that the applicant's December 23, 2024, application was a timely Petition to Reopen for New and Further Disability, and that the WCJ's original decision was made without an adequate evidentiary hearing, thereby violating due process.
