This section has been repealed. It stays here because decisions applied it while it stood, and those decisions are unreadable without it. Do not rely on it as current law.

- ADJ16597333 · 2025-08-14 · Santa Ana District Office8 CCR § 10618
Determinative passage · p.4*** The WCJ did not permit Trish Zuro to testify by telephone because the Chicago Dogs did not file a petition before the trial, showing good cause for why she should be allowed to testify remotely. Per CCR 10618(a), "If a witness intends to testify electronically, a petition showing good cause shall be filed pursuant to rule 10510 by the witness or by the party offering the witness's testimony before the hearing, and shall identify the witness and contain the witness's full legal name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number."3 There was no such petition requesting remote appearance filed in this matter.
Defense did not file a petition showing good cause for remote testimony, so request was denied.
