Summary

Applicant Yoselin Fortin filed a claim against ALA Unstoppable Services for an alleged industrial injury on May 19, 2023. SCIF filed a Petition for Dismissal for Lack of Coverage, asserting it did not insure the employer on the date of injury, but failed to serve the applicant directly. The WCJ issued a Notice of Intention to Dismiss and then an Order of Dismissal dismissing SCIF without holding a hearing or admitting evidence, despite applicant having filed a timely objection. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration, finding significant service defects and a due process violation because applicant was dismissed without a hearing or a developed record. The Board rescinded the Order of Dismissal and returned the matter to the trial level for further proceedings.
