Brown, Jarred

Applicant Jarred Brown filed a Petition for Removal challenging an April 11, 2022, order approving a stipulation in which he agreed to submit to a deposition set by defendant after a QME or vocational evaluation was scheduled. Applicant argued he would be irreparably harmed because defendants lacked good cause for a second deposition since no current controversy required additional testimony. The Board found that the dispute was not ripe because there was no evidence in the record that a QME or vocational evaluation had occurred, or that defendant had attempted to set the deposition. The Board therefore dismissed the petition.
