FELIPE TOLENTINO vs. CONCO CEMENT, CALIFORNIA INSURANCE GUARANTEE ASSOCIATION, XCHANGING INC., FREMONT COMPENSATION

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) dismissed the lien claimant's petition for reconsideration as premature. The WCAB granted the defendant's petition for reconsideration regarding the temporary disability overpayment issue, deferring it for further proceedings. The Board affirmed the WCJ's findings on injury causation and permanent disability but amended the decision to clarify the overpayment issue. Finally, the WCAB issued a notice of intention to sanction defendant's counsel for attaching and citing unadmitted evidence.

KENNETH M. HOOVER vs. CITY OF POMONA

The Appeals Board granted reconsideration of the WCJ's award of 100% permanent total disability. The Board found that the WCJ's decision was not supported by substantial evidence, primarily due to deficiencies in Dr. Grodan's medical reporting regarding the applicant's skin and cardiovascular conditions. The matter was returned to the trial level for further development of the record and a new decision. The Board confirmed the application of the 1997 Permanent Disability Rating Schedule and the admission of Dr. Shirman's report.
