Lily Jimon — ADJ10632196

Cost petitioner Citywide Scanning Service, Inc., a medical-legal copy service, petitioned for reconsideration of a WCJ's February 14, 2022 Findings and Order that excluded several of its trial exhibits and found Citywide failed to meet its burden of proof, resulting in denial and dismissal of its Cost Petition for Determination of Medical-Legal Expense. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration to study the issues and referred the parties to a commissioners' settlement conference. The parties subsequently reached and filed a fully executed stipulation on October 26, 2022, agreeing to pay Citywide $1,100.00 in new money as full and final satisfaction of its lien (against an outstanding balance of $1,755.23 including penalty and interest under Labor Code section 4622(a)(1)). The Board rescinded the WCJ's prior decision and approved the parties' stipulation, commending them for good-faith negotiation.
