CompFox AI Summary
This case involves a defendant's petition for reconsideration of an award of temporary disability indemnity. The Appeals Board granted the petition and rescinded the award due to a procedurally deficient record lacking necessary medical evidence and a proper opinion on decision. The Board found that crucial medical reporting on the applicant's continuous temporary disability status, particularly concerning the five-year jurisdictional limit, was absent. The matter is returned to the trial level for further proceedings to develop the record and issue a new decision.
