Summary

Applicant Joseph Carr, acting in pro per, filed a skeletal Petition for Reconsideration seeking to set aside a November 29, 2021 Joint Order Approving Compromise and Release that settled both his specific (September 16, 2020) and cumulative (June 1, 2020 through September 1, 2020) injury claims. No hearings had taken place on the Compromise and Release, and no evidence supporting his allegations had been admitted into the record. The Board, after granting reconsideration to study the issues, determined the Petition was premature because there was no evidentiary record on which to evaluate his contentions. The Board vacated its grant of reconsideration, dismissed the Petition, and returned the matter to the trial level with instructions for the WCJ to treat the Petition as one to set aside the Joint Order, including setting a hearing so applicant could present evidence.
