This case involved a clerical error in a prior Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) decision that inadvertently awarded a second Labor Code section 4658(d) increase. The defendant requested a correction, which the WCAB granted. The WCAB has the authority to correct clerical errors at any time. Therefore, the September 16, 2019 decision was affirmed but amended to remove the erroneous second increase, clarifying the permanent disability indemnity awarded.
