JERRY WILLIAMS vs. PRIMORIS ELECTRIC, THE HARTFORD

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board considered and denied the Petition for Removal filed by the petitioner. The Board found no substantial prejudice or irreparable harm would result from denying removal, and determined that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy if an adverse final decision were to occur. The decision emphasized that removal is an extraordinary remedy rarely exercised by the Appeals Board, referencing precedents like Cortez v. Workers' Comp. Appeals Bd. and Kleemann v. Workers' Comp. Appeals Bd. for this stance.
