Summary

Applicant Terence Chrisman filed a Petition for Disqualification of the assigned WCJ, alleging that the judge was prejudiced against him. The WCJ filed a Report recommending denial, and defendant filed no answer. The Board found the petition failed to set forth specific facts establishing bias or prejudice and that, to the extent the petition relied on a prior 2024 adverse ruling, it was both legally insufficient and untimely. The Board also addressed applicant's references to other unpled claims, clarifying that the only injury over which it had subject matter jurisdiction was the specific injury of December 30, 2011, and that other claims must be formally pled with their own adjudication numbers. The Board denied the Petition for Disqualification.
