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 Petition for Reconsideration was timely and properly filed, but the Board denied it based on the WCJ's findings that both parties violated Labor Code section 4062.3(f) and neither acted with clean hands.
