CompFox AI Summary
This case concerns Marco Cabrera's workers' compensation claim for injuries sustained as a truck driver. The WCJ initially denied the claim, finding it barred by Labor Code Section 3600(a)(10), which requires notice of injury before termination unless the employee proves otherwise. Cabrera appealed, arguing the bar did not apply, but the Appeals Board affirmed the WCJ's decision. The Board found Cabrera failed to provide credible pre-termination evidence of injury as required by law, and his testimony lacked consistency.
