BARBARA DIEFENBACH, (BARBARA CLARK) vs. SAN JOAQUIN COMMUNITY HOSPITAL, Permissibly Self-Insured, Administered By ADVENTIST HEALTH SYSTEM

This case involves a petition for reconsideration filed by Barbara Diefenbach (Applicant) against San Joaquin Community Hospital. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) denied the petition on its merits, adopting the reasoning of the administrative law judge. Furthermore, the petition was subject to dismissal for failure to serve all adverse parties. The Board also admonished the petitioner for procedural violations, including attaching an unauthorized medical report and filing a supplemental petition improperly.

STEVE ADAMS vs. COUNTY OF KERN

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted the applicant's petition for reconsideration of a May 1, 2012 decision. This action was taken due to statutory time constraints and the need for further study of the factual and legal issues presented. The WCAB determined reconsideration is necessary to fully understand the record and issue a just decision. All future filings in this matter must be submitted in writing directly to the WCAB Commissioners' office and are not to be filed with district offices or e-filed.

ALVIN WILEY vs. STATE OF CALIFORNIA, CDCR - WASCO STATE PRISON, STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND/STATE CONTRACT SERVICES

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration to clarify the application of Labor Code section 4656(c)(1) regarding the limit on temporary disability indemnity. The Board determined that Enhanced Industrial Disability Leave (EIDL) payments count towards the two-year/104-week limit on temporary disability, reversing the judge's prior finding. Consequently, the applicant is entitled to additional temporary disability only for the brief period from December 29, 2006, to January 4, 2007.
