MARGARITA RODRIGUEZ vs. TARGET CORPORATION, SEDGWICK CMS

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) denied Target Corporation's petition for removal to the WCAB. Removal is an extraordinary remedy granted only when substantial prejudice or irreparable harm will result, and reconsideration is inadequate. The WCAB found that Target failed to demonstrate either of these conditions, adopting the Workers' Compensation Judge's (WCJ) reasoning that the defendant was properly served with notice of the hearing. The Board also admonished defense counsel for failing to include their bar numbers on the petition.

BARBARA BARBULA vs. SUNRISE HEALTHCARE CENTERS, EMPLOYERS INSURANCE GROUP

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration and rescinded an administrative law judge's order that required an attorney to personally pay $500 in costs. The WCAB found no evidence in the record of a specific order mandating that attorney's personal appearance, nor that a substitute attorney's appearance constituted a violation. Reconsideration was deemed an adequate remedy, thus the petition for removal was dismissed.
