PINAZ KOLAHI vs. GENERAL MOTORS CORP., SEDGWICK CLAIMS MANAGEMENT

Defendant General Motors seeks reconsideration of a Workers' Compensation Appeals Board decision awarding temporary disability, permanent disability, and future medical treatment to applicant Pinaz Kolahi. Defendant argues the cumulative trauma period ending date is unsupported, temporary disability is unsubstantiated, and permanent disability indemnity was calculated at an incorrect rate. The Board granted reconsideration, rescinded the original and amended findings, and remanded the case for further proceedings due to an apparent inconsistency between the amended findings and opinion on decision. The Board expressed no opinion on the merits of the underlying contentions.
