CompFox AI Summary

This case concerns an applicant seeking workers' compensation for injuries allegedly arising from a series of events, including a workplace fall and subsequent cumulative trauma. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration because the trial judge's decisions regarding causation and apportionment of permanent disability were not adequately supported by the existing medical evidence. The Board found the current record insufficient to properly analyze these complex issues, necessitating further development of the medical record and a new decision. The cases are returned to the trial level for further proceedings consistent with this decision.
