CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) reconsidered an order dismissing a lien claim filed by Coast Plaza Doctors Hospital. The lien was dismissed due to the claimant's failure to appear at a lien trial and then failing to timely object to a Notice of Intention to Dismiss. Although the WCAB found the Petition for Reconsideration to be timely because service of the dismissal order was improper, they ultimately affirmed the WCJ's decision to dismiss the lien. This affirmation was based on the reasons articulated by the Workers' Compensation Judge in their report.
