JUAN VAZQUEZ vs. ABLE BUILDING MAINTENANCE, ZURICH NORTH AMERICA INSURANCE
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's Petition for Reconsideration. The Board adopted the findings of the workers' compensation administrative law judge (WCJ), emphasizing that one physician's opinion can be substantial evidence. The Board also gave great weight to the WCJ's credibility determination based on observing witness demeanor and found no substantial evidence to overturn it. Therefore, the Petition for Reconsideration was denied.
