Petitions for reconsideration of the Findings of Fact issued by the WCJ on August 27, 2020, were granted to study factual and legal issues; parties filed a Compromise and Release on October 21, 2022; the Board rescinded the August 27, 2020 Findings of Fact and remanded the matter to the trial level for consideration of the Compromise and Release and further proceedings.
What was disputed, and how it came out
Each issue the panel decided, with the reasoning it gave. An outcome is what this panel did on this record — not a rule, and not a prediction.
The Board rescinded the WCJ's findings on compensability and remanded the matter for further consideration of the Compromise and Release, without ruling on the merits of compensability.
The WCJ found the claim in case ADJ12735249 barred by the statute of limitations, and the Board did not overturn this finding.
