YOLANDA RAMIREZ vs. ON LINE POWER, INC., CLARENDON NATIONAL INSURANCE, Administered By AMERICAN ALL RISK LOSS FRESNO

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration, overturning a prior award of temporary total disability (TTD) after the applicant's permanent and stationary date of March 3, 2005. While acknowledging that a defendant could be estopped from terminating TTD, the Board found the evidence here rebutted the presumption of continuing disability. The Board affirmed the employer's right to credit for permanent disability advances and reserved jurisdiction for EDD reimbursement issues. Attorney fees were adjusted to reflect the modified TTD award.
