PETE SORIA vs. FLEETWOOD ALUMINUM PRODUCTS, INC., CALIFORNIA INSURANCE GUARANTEE ASSOCIATION For RELIANCE INSURANCE, In Liquidation

The WCAB granted reconsideration and rescinded a WCJ's order awarding costs to lien claimants. The WCJ's original order lacked a proper evidentiary hearing, a summary of evidence, and an opinion explaining the grounds for the decision, violating due process and Board rules. The Board found the WCJ's subsequent attempt to rescind the order was untimely. The case is returned to the trial level for further proceedings, including an evidentiary hearing and a properly documented decision.
