CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the employer's petition for reconsideration because it was unverified and the defect was not cured. The Board also denied the insurance carrier's petition, upholding the original finding that the applicant sustained an industrial injury. This decision was based on the administrative law judge's credibility findings regarding the applicant's intent to return to work after a break. The employee's memory impairment near the accident did not render her testimony unreliable for earlier events.
