ESTELA CHANCHAVAC vs. LB INDUSTRIES, INC., SENTRY INSURANCE, A MUTUAL COMPANY

This case involves Estela Chanchavac's petition for reconsideration and removal. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the reconsideration petition, finding the WCJ's decision was interlocutory and not a final order. The WCAB also denied the removal petition, determining there was no showing of substantial prejudice or irreparable harm, nor that reconsideration would be an inadequate remedy. The WCAB adopted and incorporated the WCJ's report for its reasoning.
