CHARLES BURNS vs. COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the County of San Bernardino's petition for removal regarding a judge's order on subpoenas. The County sought to quash all subpoenas for records related to an inmate's claimed industrial injury, arguing the inmate was not an employee. The Board found the County failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm from the order, even if the initial petition to quash was untimely. If the inmate is not an employee, the County will not be liable for costs related to the records or medical-legal expenses.

BEVERLY BOLTON vs. COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) granted the defendant County of San Bernardino's petition for reconsideration of a January 29, 2016 decision. The WCAB requires further study of the factual and legal issues to ensure a just and reasoned decision. All future correspondence related to this reconsideration must be filed directly with the WCAB Commissioners in San Francisco, not with any district office or via e-filing. Any proposed settlements must be promptly communicated to the WCAB, as trial judges cannot act on them while reconsideration is pending.

IRMA RAMIREZ vs. COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) rescinded the dismissal of Sidhu Chiropractic's lien claim because the County of San Bernardino improperly served the dismissal order due to an incorrect address. The defective service deprived Sidhu of due process rights to notice and an opportunity to be heard on the dismissal of its lien. The case is returned to the trial level for further proceedings on the merits of Sidhu's lien claim.

Stephen Gomez vs. County of San Bernardino

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board dismissed the County of San Bernardino's petition for reconsideration. The defendant sought review of a July 29, 2014 award, arguing it was duplicative of a May 7, 2014 award. However, the Administrative Law Judge subsequently issued an order vacating the July 29th award, clarifying it was issued due to a clerical error and the May 7th award remained in effect. This timely vacation rendered the petition moot.

HAROLD HANSEN vs. COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) rescinded a prior decision barring a lien claim from Arrowback Medical Group (AMG). The WCAB found that while AMG's delay in prosecuting its lien claim was not ideal, the defendant, County of San Bernardino, failed to prove prejudice. The stipulated awards in the underlying workers' compensation cases acknowledged AMG's lien and agreed to address it on the merits. Therefore, the case is returned for further proceedings and a new decision on the lien claim.
