CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration of an order dismissing a lien claimant's lien based on a failure to file a Notice of Representation (NOR) under WCAB Rule 10774.5. The WCAB found that because the rule became effective after the lien claimant initially appeared, a new NOR was not required when an employee of their representative appeared. Therefore, the WCAB rescinded the dismissal order and returned the matter for further proceedings.
