BERNADETTE LEVSTIK vs. ACOSTA SALES AND MARKETING, THE HARTFORD

Here's a summary for a lawyer, in four sentences: The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) issued an Opinion and Order dismissing a Petition for Reconsideration in the case of Levstik v. Acosta Sales and Marketing. The dismissal occurred because the party who filed the petition voluntarily withdrew it. Consequently, the WCAB is no longer considering the appeal of the September 2, 2016 Findings of Fact, Order, and Award. The matter is now concluded with the dismissal of the reconsideration petition.
