Summary

Maria Salcedo petitioned for reconsideration of a WCJ's Findings of Fact and Order issued July 29, 2021, in her claim against the Subsequent Injuries Benefits Trust Fund (SIBTF). The Appeals Board granted reconsideration to study the factual and legal issues. After participating in a commissioners' settlement conference set at the Board's request, applicant and SIBTF resolved the claim through a Compromise and Release filed July 7, 2022. The Board reviewed the C&R in light of the entire record and the litigation risks, finding the settlement amount adequate and in applicant's best interest, and the requested attorneys' fee reasonable. As its Decision After Reconsideration, the Board rescinded the WCJ's Findings of Fact and Order, approved the Compromise and Release, and made an award in favor of Salcedo against SIBTF.
