Polly Mark Dizon vs. Spears Manufacturing Company, Zurich San Francisco

Applicant Polly Mark Dizon filed applications for cumulative and specific injuries. The Workers' Compensation Administrative Law Judge (WCJ) issued a Findings and Order (F&O) requiring additional Qualified Medical Examination (QME) panels, which the defendant opposed. Defendant filed a Petition for Removal, arguing they would suffer substantial prejudice. The Appeals Board granted the Petition for Removal, finding that due process was violated as no evidentiary record was made, and the Minutes of Hearing were unclear. Consequently, the May 24, 2024 F&O was rescinded, and the matter returned to the trial level for further proceedings consistent with the Board's opinion.
