Gaylon Hyder vs. St. Louis Rams, The Travelers Indemnity Co.

This case concerns a professional athlete's claim for workers' compensation benefits. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) rescinded a prior award, finding it lacked jurisdiction. The applicant did not sufficiently demonstrate that his cumulative industrial injury occurred in California or that he was regularly employed in the state. Therefore, the WCAB determined it could not adjudicate the claim.

MIGUEL AGUILAR vs. HYDER PROPERTY MANAGEMENT, INSURANCE COMPANY OF THE WEST

This case involves a lien claimant's petition for reconsideration of a prior order denying its reimbursement claim. The lien claimant argued the administrative law judge erred by not relying on specific medical reports. However, the petition was improperly filed and the cited medical reports were not admitted into evidence. Consequently, the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the petition for reconsideration on its merits and due to procedural deficiencies.
