Case No. ADJ3157275RegularMar 18, 2013
RODOLFO PONCE vs. PACIFIC MOLDED TECHNOLOGY, UNITED STATES FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied reconsideration of a decision that disallowed a lien claim by Frontline Medical Associates. Frontline had previously settled its lien in 2008 for a specific amount, which was approved by the Board. Despite this settlement, Frontline attempted to file a new, significantly larger lien for services predating the settlement. The Board found that the 2008 settlement was a full and final resolution of the lien, and Frontline could not revive its claim through an amended or new lien. The case was returned to the trial level for the judge to decide on the defendants' petition for costs and sanctions.
