Daniel Ennis — ADJ7770981

Applicant Daniel Ennis petitioned for reconsideration of a WCJ's Findings of Fact and Order issued February 11, 2022, in his claim against the Subsequent Injuries Benefits Trust Fund (SIBTF). The Board granted reconsideration to study the factual and legal issues. Following a commissioners' settlement conference, the parties resolved the claim by Compromise and Release filed November 4, 2022. The Board reviewed the C&R for adequacy under Labor Code sections 5001, 5002, and 5003 and WCAB Rule 10700(b), concluding the settlement amount was adequate and in applicant's best interest, and that the requested attorneys' fee was reasonable. The Board rescinded the prior Findings of Fact and Order and approved the Compromise and Release.
