CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board affirmed an earlier decision awarding applicant 100% permanent disability, less credits and fees, due to industrial injuries to his right knee, psyche, and lumbar spine. The Subsequent Injuries Benefits Trust Fund (SIBTF) sought reconsideration, arguing the applicant's disability was solely from the latter injury and thus not eligible for SIBTF benefits. The Board accepted the applicant's late-filed answer to the SIBTF's petition and, agreeing with the original judge, denied the SIBTF's petition for reconsideration. The Board also admitted two exhibits previously marked for identification into evidence.
