CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed Rodney Ficklin's Petition for Reconsideration because it was filed significantly past the 25-day deadline. The applicant's claims of displacement were insufficient to overcome the jurisdictional requirement of timely filing, as the Board lacks authority to act on untimely petitions. Proper service was made on the applicant's attorney, who did not object, and the applicant failed to update his address. Case ADJ9038762 remains open.
