Robert Lockhart vs. Lexmar Distribution, Inc., Safety National Casualty Company, MATRIX, Redwood Fire, BHHC, California Insurance Guarantee Association, SEDGWICK CLAIMS MANAGEMENT SERVICES, ULLICO CASUALTY COMPANY

Here's a summary of the case in four sentences for a lawyer:

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration and rescinded a prior award finding a cumulative trauma injury. The Board found that neither of the medical evaluators adequately understood the applicant's specific job duties as a hostler driver. Without a proper understanding of the cumulative physical impact of these duties, their opinions lack substantial evidence to support a finding of cumulative trauma. The matter is returned to the trial level for further development of the medical record regarding the applicant's job duties.
