Applicant Rafael Navarro, a bicycle mechanic, claimed a specific injury (05/30/2018) to his right knee and a cumulative trauma (12/01/2016–05/31/2018) to his lumbar spine and bilateral wrists. The WCJ found the right knee and CT injuries industrial, awarded TTD for the right knee from 07/09/2018 to 05/05/2021 (subject to the 104-week cap), assigned Occupational Group Number 360, denied defendant credit for an alleged TTD overpayment, denied defendant's late request for tax-return discovery, and rejected defendant's fraud/double-dipping and restitution claims, while deferring several issues (P&S date, PD, apportionment, causation for the hands) for further development of the record. Defendant petitioned for reconsideration on six grounds. The Appeals Board adopted and incorporated the WCJ's Report and Opinions on Decision and denied reconsideration, also addressing the timeliness of its action under amended Labor Code section 5909.
