Summary

Applicant Richard Neill sustained admitted injuries to his cervical spine, right shoulder, and lumbar spine while working as a window/door installer/glazier. The WCJ issued an Amended Findings of Fact & Award finding 38% permanent disability, 104 weeks of retroactive temporary disability based on an increased average weekly earnings rate of $560.00 (adjusted under Labor Code section 4661.5), and 10% penalties on both delayed TTD and PD under Labor Code section 4650(d). Defendant petitioned for reconsideration, contending applicant's earnings should be based on wages at the time of injury, that its withheld witnesses should be allowed to testify, that retroactive TTD and EDD reimbursement were improper, and that no penalties were warranted. The WCAB adopted the WCJ's Report and denied reconsideration, finding defendant failed to cite supporting case law or present rebuttal evidence. The Board also noted defendant violated Rule 10945(c) by attaching documents already in the record.
