MICHAEL LONGFELLOW vs. LOOKHEED MARTIN, ESIS

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board affirmed the original decision, ruling that the 2005 Permanent Disability Rating Schedule (PDRS) applies to the applicant's case. The Board found that neither a pre-2005 medical report by Dr. Silver indicating permanent disability nor a specific notice exception under Labor Code section 4660(d) were met. Consequently, the applicant's permanent disability was correctly rated using the 2005 PDRS.

PATRICK D. LONGFELLOW vs. E.J. MEYER COMPANY, STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND

The Appeals Board granted reconsideration and rescinded a prior award, returning the case for further proceedings. This decision addresses penalties for delayed medical treatment and attorney fees awarded under Labor Code sections 5813 and 5814.5. The Board found that penalties could be assessed for delays occurring after a May 29, 2008 order, despite a stipulation in that order. Additionally, the attorney fee award needs recalculation considering the relatively small value of the delayed treatment, pursuant to *Ramirez v. Drive Financial Services*.
