The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the defendant's petition for reconsideration of an Order Approving Compromise and Release, which settled applicant Rosario Trujillo's claims for $$30,000$. The defendant sought to set aside the settlement, arguing a Medicare set-aside analysis used for the settlement was no longer valid at the time of approval. The Board found the defendant made an insufficient showing to set aside the settlement, noting no changed condition had been demonstrated to invalidate the analysis, and that the defendant failed to establish fraud, mutual mistake, duress, or undue influence.
