CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed a lien claimant's Petition for Reconsideration and denied their Petition for Removal. The WCJ had continued a trial to allow the defendant, who repeatedly failed to appear, to submit an amended pre-trial conference statement. The Board found the WCJ's order to be an interlocutory procedural decision, not a final order, thus making reconsideration improper. Removal was denied as the lien claimant failed to demonstrate irreparable harm.
