Decision date: Nov 20, 2025

CCR §10961

Summary

While Jay Myers' case against the permissibly self-insured County of Orange was pending on reconsideration, the parties reached a proposed settlement. Because the District Office is precluded from acting on a case pending reconsideration under Cal. Code Regs., tit. 8, § 10961, the Appeals Board rescinded the WCJ's June 4, 2025 decision and returned the matter to the trial level. This procedural step permits the WCJ to review and consider the proposed settlement. The Board expressly noted this is not a final decision on the merits of any pending issues. If the WCJ does not approve the settlement, the original decision may be reinstated and any aggrieved party may again seek reconsideration.
