Case No. ADJ4709951 (SFO 0511409)RegularOct 28, 2010
POMPEYO CASTILLA vs. SUGAR BOWL BAKERY, OAK RIVER INSURANCE COMPANY
This case involves applicant Pompeyo Castilla seeking reconsideration of a $\$75,000$ compromise and release settlement for a back and nervous system injury. Castilla argued the settlement was too low and he was coerced. However, the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed his petition as untimely, as it was filed approximately one month after the deadline. The Board noted that the filing deadline is jurisdictional and that they would have denied the petition on its merits if it had been timely.
