The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted reconsideration of an administrative law judge's order suspending Integrated Healthcare Recovery Services (IHRS) from appearing before the board. This suspension stemmed from IHRS's failure to pay a $1,000 sanction previously imposed for missing a lien trial. The WCAB has now issued a notice of intent to suspend IHRS unless the sanction is paid within 20 days, citing IHRS's failure to comply with a final order as good cause. IHRS may avoid suspension by paying the sanction or demonstrating good cause to the WCAB.
This case involves the suspension of Mike Traw's privilege to appear before the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) under Labor Code Section 4907.

(PLS) sought extensions, neither Traw nor PLS provided a substantive response. Consequently, Traw's appearance privilege is suspended for ninety days due to his failure to comply with the WCAB's orders. Further action against PLS may occur if ordered sanctions remain unpaid.
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the Uninsured Employers Benefits Trust Fund's (UEBTF) petition for reconsideration of a June 19, 2012 decision.

However, the WCAB found the petition untimely, as it was filed over twenty days after the decision and outside the statutory filing period. Therefore, the Board dismissed the UEBTF's petition without addressing the merits of their argument.
