JOE NAVARRO vs. LOCKHEED MARTIN

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration of a decision regarding Joe Navarro's claims against Lockheed Martin. The Board adopted the Workers' Compensation Administrative Law Judge's report, which found Navarro to be an unreliable historian with significant symptom magnification. Consequently, the Board denied injury claims for heart and high blood pressure, and upheld a 27% permanent disability award for a psyche injury, based on the judge's credibility findings.
