CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration and rescinded the prior award, finding the judge erred in awarding temporary disability beyond 104 weeks. This decision is based on the defendant's argument that the award conflicts with Mt. Diablo Unified School Dist. v. Workers' Comp. Appeals Bd. (Rollick), which limits temporary disability payments under similar circumstances. The Board remanded the case for further proceedings to revisit the two-year limitation of Labor Code section 4656(c)(1) in light of Rollick and the parties' stipulations.
