Summary

Lien claimant Motion Picture Industry Pension and Health Plans (MPHP) petitioned for reconsideration of a WCJ's Supplemental Findings of Fact, Award and Order issued March 25, 2022, which disallowed MPHP's lien for the cost of medical treatment provided to applicant Michael Young after finding MPHP failed to meet its burden of proof. After the Board requested mediation, defendant Warner Bros. Entertainment, Inc. and MPHP reached an agreement to resolve the lien claim, with defendant agreeing to pay MPHP $215,000 in full satisfaction. The Board affirmed the WCJ's decision but amended it to reflect the resolution by agreement and rescinded the order disallowing the lien. The Board approved the July 13, 2022 stipulation and commended the parties for resolving the matter without further litigation.
