The petition was dismissed because it was not filed timely, as it was received by the Board after the statutory deadline. Even if the petition had been timely, it would have been denied on its merits for failing to appear at a scheduled lien trial and for not providing sufficient justification for its non-appearance. The Board noted the lien claimant also failed to provide proof of an activation fee payment at a prior hearing.
