STEPHEN RANDALL vs. DTM ENTERPRISES, INC., PRECISION DOOR SERVICE, DONALD TAYLOR, JACQUELYN TAYLOR, CALIFORNIA INSURANCE GUARANTEE ASSOCIATION, LUMBERMEN'S UNDERWRITING, UNINSURED EMPLOYERS' BENEFITS TRUST FUND

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied DTM Enterprises' petition for reconsideration. DTM argued the judge erred in finding the applicant solely employed by them and that the case should be handled by an arbitrator due to an insurance dispute. However, the applicant testified he only received direction and pay from DTM, never heard of Tri-State, and no evidence of a dual employment contract was presented. The Board found no indication of employment by any entity other than DTM and that insurance coverage disputes are separate from employment determinations.
