MARY WEISSMAN vs. LONG BEACH UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT, Permissibly Self-Insured, Adjusted By TRISTAR RISK MANAGEMENT

The Appeals Board granted removal and dismissed the employer's petition for reconsideration. They found the employer was prejudiced by the late admission of the applicant's QME report, violating due process. The Board affirmed the WCJ's order for further medical development by the AME, instructing him to base his opinion on the applicant's deposition testimony. Finally, the May 14, 2010 QME report was struck from the record.
