CompFox AI Summary

The Appeals Board granted Liberty Mutual's petition for reconsideration, rescinding the arbitrator's finding that the applicant did not sustain a psychiatric injury. This decision was made because the arbitrator failed to issue a decision on the pro rata liability between defendants and did not explain the exclusion of a key medical report. The case is returned to the trial level for further proceedings and a new decision that addresses all submitted issues and provides clear reasoning.
