SHAWN K. ESPINOZA vs. NATIONAL STEEL & SHIPBUILDING COMPANY

This Workers' Compensation Appeals Board decision denies a petition for reconsideration. The Board found no good cause to reopen a 1999 sanctions order against petitioner Barry W. Ponticello, despite his claims of the issuing judge's bias and the underlying facts not justifying sanctions. The Board previously rejected these arguments, deeming them insufficient to revisit a settled issue affirmed by appellate courts.
