AGUSTIN NAVARRO vs. ALLIED WASTE OF SACRAMENTO, ZURICH NORTH AMERICA INSURANCE COMPANY

This case involves a petition for reconsideration of a prior order that itself granted reconsideration. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the petition because reconsideration can only be sought from a final order, decision, or award, not from interlocutory procedural orders. An order granting reconsideration without resolving the underlying issues is not considered final. Therefore, the petition challenging the order granting reconsideration was dismissed as procedurally improper.
