This case concerns a dispute over temporary disability benefits and an EDD lien following an admitted industrial injury to an applicant. The applicant claims entitlement to temporary disability from July 27, 2015, to the present, while the defendant argues against the EDD lien due to alleged double compensation and procedural issues. The Appeals Board denied the defendant's petition but granted the applicant's, remanding the matter to the trial level. This is due to insufficient medical evidence regarding the applicant's work capacity from July 27, 2015, to their termination for cause on August 25, 2015, necessitating further proceedings to clarify temporary disability, EDD lien, and attorney fees.
