JUAN RUIZ vs. WAKEFIELD ENGINEERING/LOCKHART INDUSTRIES, THE HARTFORD

This case involved a petition for reconsideration filed by a lien claimant that was dismissed by the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board. The Board found the petition untimely because it was not filed within the statutory 20-day period plus 5 days for mailing. Consequently, the Board lacked jurisdiction to consider the merits of the petition. The petition was therefore dismissed as untimely.
