MICHAEL FEENEY vs. CITY OF ANAHEIM FIRE DEPT., permissibly self-insured

This case involves a fire captain's claim for industrial injury to his upper extremities, specifically bilateral carpal tunnel and canal of Guyon entrapments. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) rescinded the previous award, finding insufficient evidence to support industrial causation for these specific upper extremity injuries. The WCAB remanded the case for further development of the record, as medical reports did not definitively link the conditions to his employment. The determination of permanent disability and apportionment for these issues remains deferred pending further medical evaluation.
