TERESA BACA vs. STATE OF CALIFORNIA DPSS/CALWORKS/GAIN; TRISTAR; STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND
This case involves a Petition for Reconsideration filed by Pinnacle Lien Services on behalf of lien claimant Dynamed, Inc., challenging a prior Order Imposing Sanctions. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the petition as untimely. Although the petitioner claimed defective service of the sanctions order, the WCAB found that their own records, via the EAMS system, conclusively showed proper service of the relevant orders to Pinnacle Lien Services at their correct address. Therefore, the WCAB denied reconsideration as the petition was not filed within the statutory timeframe.
