PAMELA MNYANDU vs. LOS ANGELES UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT

This case involves a workers' compensation applicant who filed a Petition for Disqualification against Administrative Law Judge Diane Bancroft, alleging bias and ex parte communication. This is the applicant's second such petition; the first was dismissed as untimely. The current petition is also dismissed because it was filed after the swearing of the first witness. Even if the merits were considered, the petition would be denied based on the record. The applicant's request to file a supplemental petition is also denied.

GEORGE MARTINEZ vs. GREENHECK FAN CORPORATION

Applicant George Martinez filed a petition seeking disqualification of the workers' compensation judge (WCJ), alleging various procedural unfairnesses and racism during a discrimination trial. The WCJ recommended denial of the petition. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) denied the petition, finding Martinez failed to specify grounds for disqualification as required by statute and board rule. The WCAB found no evidence to support the allegations of bias or racism against the WCJ. The case is returned to the trial level for further proceedings.
