CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration of a prior decision that disallowed a lien claimant's psychiatric and medical-legal services. The Board found the lien claimant was likely not properly served with the original decision and thus her petition was timely filed after she discovered the ruling. Consequently, the Board rescinded the disallowance of the lien, affirmed the rest of the prior decision, and returned the case to the trial level for further proceedings on the lien claim before a new administrative law judge.
