DANIEL THOMAS vs. BIOLOGICAL TECHNOLOGY, AMTRUST NORTH AMERCA

This case concerns Daniel Thomas's workers' compensation claim against Biological Technology and Amtrust North America. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied Thomas's petition for reconsideration, adopting the WCJ's report. The Board gave great weight to the WCJ's credibility determinations and found no substantial evidence to reject them. Crucially, the Board determined that Thomas failed to meet his burden under Labor Code Section 3600(a)(10) to demonstrate his claim was not barred by a layoff or termination notice.
