TROY SANDERS vs. LOWE'S HIW, INC., SEDGWICK CMS

This Workers' Compensation Appeals Board decision dismisses the applicant's Petition for Reconsideration as untimely. The petition was filed more than 25 days after the August 1, 2012 Order Approving Compromise and Release. Specifically, it failed to meet the 20-day deadline under Labor Code section 5903, plus 5 days for mailing. Even if timely, the Board would have denied the petition on its merits, adopting the WCJ's reasoning.
