FELIPE TOLENTINO vs. CONCO CEMENT, CALIFORNIA INSURANCE GUARANTEE ASSOCIATION, XCHANGING INC., FREMONT COMPENSATION

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the lien claimant's petition for reconsideration as premature. The WCAB granted the defendant's petition for reconsideration regarding the temporary disability overpayment issue, deferring it for further proceedings. The Board affirmed the WCJ's findings on injury causation and permanent disability but amended the decision to clarify the overpayment issue. Finally, the WCAB issued a notice of intention to sanction defendant's counsel for attaching and citing unadmitted evidence.

MABEL MARK vs. CHINATOWN SERVICE CENTER (NON PROFIT), BHHC/CYPRESS INSURANCE COMPANY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the defendant's petition for removal because it was untimely filed. The defendant had notice of a lien hearing on October 30, 2012, but did not file the petition until February 22, 2013, exceeding the 20-day deadline. Even if timely, the petition would have been denied on its merits, as the WCAB has jurisdiction to schedule lien proceedings in any district office. Therefore, the petition for removal is dismissed.

ROSALINDA RODRIGUEZ vs. MERCURY INSURANCE SERVICES, LLC, TRAVELERS PROPERTY & CASUALTY COMPANY OF AMERICA

The Appeals Board granted the defendant's Petition for Removal, rescinding the WCJ's order that removed the case from calendar due to lack of jurisdiction. The WCJ erred in finding he could not rule on the defendant's petition to strike the applicant's request for additional QME panels. The Board determined that Labor Code section 133 and WCAB Rule 10348 grant the WCJ jurisdiction to determine the reasonableness and necessity of such requests. The case is returned to the WCJ to decide whether additional QME panels are warranted.
