JOHN YOUNTS vs. HANSON AGGREGATES, CALIFORNIA INSURANCE GUARANTEE ASSOCIATION, Through Its Servicing Facility SEDGWICK CMS, for FREMONT COMPENSATION INSURANCE COMPANY, In Liquidation, ZURICH AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY

This case concerns CIGA's (California Insurance Guarantee Association) indemnity petition against Zurich. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted CIGA's reconsideration request, finding the prior denial of its indemnity petition was erroneous. The WCAB clarified that CIGA's right to indemnity had not been adjudicated in previous proceedings and rescinded the prior order. The matter is returned to the trial level for further proceedings on CIGA's indemnity petition.
