Summary

Lien claimant Solano County DCSS sought reconsideration of an Order Approving Compromise and Release (OACR) issued July 26, 2024, which resolved two consolidated claims for $25,000 less attorney fees. DCSS filed a child support lien for $10,713.07 on August 5, 2024, after the OACR issued, and argued the OACR should be set aside because unpaid child support was owed. The C&R contained language stating no liens were known and that defendant would adjust, negotiate, or litigate any timely filed lien with WCAB jurisdiction reserved. The Board held that because the C&R was clear and unambiguous, the August 5, 2024 lien filed under section 4903(e) is defendant's responsibility per Paragraph 8. The Board denied reconsideration, noting either party could file a Declaration of Readiness to litigate the lien now that the case-in-chief was resolved.
