Summary

While Diana Lara's case was pending on reconsideration of a WCJ decision dated May 30, 2023, the parties reached a proposed settlement. Because the District Office is precluded from acting on a case while it is pending on reconsideration under Cal. Code Regs., tit. 8, § 10961, the Appeals Board rescinded the underlying decision and returned the matter to the trial level. This procedural step allows the WCJ to review the proposed settlement. The Board emphasized that this is not a final decision on the merits of any pending issue, and that if the WCJ does not approve the settlement, the original decision may be reinstated and a party may again seek reconsideration.
