LC §3208.3LC §5401LC §5402

Summary

Applicant Ricardo Sarabia Fernandez claimed a continuous trauma injury including psyche while working as a machinist/laborer for Rexnord Aerospace from September 2, 2014 through July 12, 2016. The WCJ found no injury AOE/COE and ordered applicant take nothing, relying on the reports of psychiatric QME Dr. Dmitriy Sherman. On reconsideration, the Board found Dr. Sherman's reports did not constitute substantial evidence because he repeatedly requested but never received Mission Community Hospital treatment records, Kaiser records, and applicant's personnel records/witness statements, and expressly deferred his Rolda causation analysis pending those records. The Board also noted the trial record lacked any claim form or denial notice, making it impossible to determine whether the Labor Code section 5402 90-day presumption applied. The Board granted reconsideration, rescinded the F&O, and returned the matter to the WCJ to further develop the record and issue a new decision.
