CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the defendant's Petition for Reconsideration as untimely, as it was filed 44 days after the deadline. The Board, however, corrected a clerical error in the original Findings and Award. The Judge had awarded $12,425.48 to a lien claimant, but the corrected award reflects the statutory limit of 24 chiropractic visits, along with physical therapy and acupuncture, totaling $3,740.61 based on expert testimony.
