CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the employer's petition for reconsideration as it was not a final order but granted removal to rescind the WCJ's disapproval of the Stipulations. The Board found the Stipulations might be adequate despite the WCJ's concerns and ordered the matter returned to the trial level with missing documents to be filed. The employer must provide Dr. Knight's December 2006 report, its investigator's report, and the proposed Stipulations for a new decision on their adequacy.
