Lam, Grace

Grace Lam, the applicant in three consolidated claims against the County of Los Angeles (administered by Sedgwick Claims Management), filed a Petition for Removal. The petitioner sought to challenge an interlocutory ruling by the WCJ. The Appeals Board reviewed the petition alongside the WCJ's report and applied the standard for removal, which requires a showing of substantial prejudice or irreparable harm. Finding that the petitioner failed to demonstrate either substantial prejudice/irreparable harm or that reconsideration would be an inadequate remedy, the Board denied the petition.
