PAULINA RODRIGUEZ ORELLANA vs. UNITED CARE SERVICES, INC. (a.k.a. VERMONT CARE CENTER), NEW HAMPSHIRE UNSURANCE COMPNAY

This case involves a defendant's petition for reconsideration of a workers' compensation award for a back injury. The defendant argued the injury was settled by a prior compromise and release (C&R) and that the claim was barred as post-termination. The Appeals Board denied reconsideration, finding the prior C&R specifically limited its scope, excluding the current injury which was not listed. The Board also noted the defendant's knowledge of the injury, negating claims of reliance on applicant's representations or post-termination bar.
