CHRIS KING vs. SAN JOSE JOB CORPS, INSURANCE COMPANY STATE OF PA, BROADSPIRE

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the defendant's petition for reconsideration of an award to the applicant, Chris King. The defendant argued the applicant's testimony was not credible due to discrepancies in medical records and reporting delays. However, the Board gave great weight to the Administrative Law Judge's credibility determination, which was supported by independent witness testimony corroborating the claimed injury during an MMA class. The Board found no substantial evidence to reject the judge's findings, affirming the original award.
