WILLIAM MIRANDA vs. MEADOWBROOK MEAT COMPANY, INC., Permissibly Self-Insured, Administered By SEDGWICK CLAIMS MANAGEMENT COMPANY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed applicant William Miranda's petition for reconsideration because it was not verified as required by law. The applicant failed to cure this defect despite notice, and also attempted to file an unauthorized supplemental pleading. Furthermore, the WCAB found the WCJ's order deferring temporary disability was an interlocutory, non-final order, and thus not subject to reconsideration. The petition also lacked specificity regarding grounds and evidentiary support.
