REYNA MARQUEZ vs. SENSIENT TECHNOLOGIES, ZURICH AMERICAN INSURACE CO., SEDGWICK CMS, ACE AMERICAN INSURANCE CO., SPECIALTY RISK SERVICES

This case concerns two workers' compensation claims for industrial injuries to the applicant's left shoulder and low back, respectively. The defendants, Zurich and ACE, petitioned for reconsideration, arguing that the findings of industrial injury were not supported by substantial medical evidence and that they were denied due process regarding an agreed medical evaluator's supplemental report. The Appeals Board denied reconsideration, finding that the defendants waived their due process objections by failing to raise them at the trial level or in their initial petition. The Board incorporated the WCJ's report, which found no basis for the defendants' arguments.
