How the appealed decisions came out

Most claims end in a compromise and release or a stipulation and never reach a panel, so nothing below describes how this insurance carrier does its work. It describes how a set of appealed disputes came out.

• ADJ7835304 · 2025-10-17 · Marina del Rey District OfficeAOE/COEdefendant prevailed

  Determinative passage · p.3The issue presented on reconsideration is whether applicant may be paid compensation for a psychiatric injury in this matter pursuant to section 3208.3(d), which provides in relevant part:

  The Board corrected the WCJ's erroneous finding that applicant did not sustain a psychiatric injury AOE/COE but affirmed that applicant was not employed for at least six months and the injury was not caused by a sudden and extraordinary employment condition, thus no compensation under section 3208.3(d).

  Determinative passage · p.5Applicant's attorney thereafter ordered subpoenas duces tecum for records, and lien claimant performed copy services in September and November 2013. At that time, it is clear that a contested claim existed, because the Application claiming injury and seeking benefits was filed by applicant on December 5, 2011 almost two years before, and the dates that the subpoena duces tecum were issued were well beyond the 14 day period for defendant to begin paying applicant temporary disability, to offer medical treatment, or to respond to applicant's claim. Thus, a "contested claim" existed prior to the lien claimant performing any copy services.

  The WCAB found that a contested claim existed at the time lien claimant provided services because the applicant's claim was filed well before the services and the defendant had not timely accepted or denied liability, indicating a contested claim existed.

• ADJ9737864 · 2022-04-22 · Los Angeles District OfficeLiensdefendant prevailed

  Determinative passage · p.1Lien claimant Citywide Scanning Service, Inc., seeks reconsideration of the Findings and Orders (F&O) issued on June 12, 2019, wherein the workers' compensation administrative law judge (WCJ) found as relevant that (1) lien claimant failed to establish its lien claim because it failed to offer admissible evidence in support thereof; and (2) lien claimant and its counsel, Amy Cosio, engaged in bad faith and frivolous actions designed solely to harass defendant by proceeding to trial in disregard of court rules and procedures, justifying Labor Code section 58131 sanctions and costs.

  Lien claimant failed to provide an exhibit list as required by Labor Code section 5502(d)(3), resulting in exclusion of evidence and failure to meet burden of proof; sanctions imposed without proper notice were rescinded.
