STEVEN MILLER vs. CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA RISK MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the applicant's petition for reconsideration because the issue of the permanent disability bump under Labor Code section 4658(d)(2) was not raised or decided by the judge at trial. As the applicant was not aggrieved by any determination on this specific issue, the petition was deemed improper for reconsideration. Therefore, the WCAB found no grounds to grant the petition.
