The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration, rescinding a prior award for continuing temporary disability. The Board found the administrative law judge lacked jurisdiction to award temporary disability beyond five years from the injury date and that a prior stipulation with request for award on March 8, 2007, had already settled all temporary disability claims. Therefore, the applicant is not entitled to the awarded temporary disability from October 22, 2003, to the present.
