Summary

Applicant Jorge Mitchell filed a Petition for Removal and Disqualification seeking to remove the case from the assigned WCJ and disqualify the WCJ. The WCAB reviewed the petition alongside the WCJ's report. Applying the extraordinary-remedy standard for removal and the strict factual-pleading requirements for disqualification, the Board found that no substantial prejudice or irreparable harm was shown and that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy. The Board also found the disqualification petition lacked detailed, verified facts establishing any statutory ground. The petition was denied in its entirety, with several removal issues noted as moot.
