JACQUELINE DIXON vs. VEOLIA TRANSPORTATION, OLD REPUBLIC INSURANCE COMPANY

This Workers' Compensation Appeals Board case involves an applicant seeking reconsideration of a denial for epidural steroid injections. While the applicant's petition was initially filed late, the Board deemed it timely due to defective service of the prior order. Crucially, the applicant subsequently informed the Board that the Independent Medical Review (IMR) had approved the disputed treatment. Consequently, the applicant requested dismissal of their petition, which the Board granted, returning the matter to the trial level.
