JUAN SORIA vs. BARRERA FARM WORKS, MEADOWBROOK INSURANCE COMPANY
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the applicant's petition for reconsideration because it was filed untimely. The applicant sought reconsideration of a prior order that found injury AOE/COE only to rhabdomyolysis. Although the applicant argued the prior order was not based on substantial medical evidence, the Board found the petition was filed outside the 25-day jurisdictional deadline. Even if liberally construed as a petition to reopen, it lacked the required specificity to warrant consideration.
