Case No. ADJ10721346 ADJ10568270RegularNov 30, 2018
GERALDINE PEREYRA vs. SAGE HUMPHRIES, D.D.S., STATE FARM INSURANCE
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration. The applicant alleged injury from carrying a sterilization machine, but the administrative law judge found her testimony not credible, particularly after hearing conflicting testimony from Dr. Do. The Board deferred to the judge's credibility determination due to his opportunity to observe the witnesses. Therefore, the applicant failed to prove her injury arose out of and in the course of employment.
