CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration to review the judge's findings of fact and award. While the defendant argued against the applicant's burden of proof, the WCJ's credibility finding, and the award of temporary disability instead of Industrial Disability Leave, the Board ultimately amended the findings. The Board found that the applicant sustained a cumulative trauma injury to her psyche through January 28, 2014, arising out of and in the course of employment, affirming the rest of the original award.
