Summary

Police captain Osama Agaiby sustained a specific injury on August 5, 2020 (neck, back, both shoulders, both knees) and a separate cumulative trauma claim for bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome (May 1, 1994 to February 8, 2021). The WCJ awarded two separate full years of Labor Code section 4850 benefits, one per injury, despite the temporary disability periods partially overlapping. Defendant City of Culver City sought reconsideration, arguing that section 4850 benefits paid during overlapping TD periods should be credited to both dates of injury, precluding separate full-year awards. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration to study the issue, noting a split of authority and the Supreme Court's pending review in the related Ayala matter. The Board deferred a final decision pending further review and possible development of the record.
