Summary

While applicant Marina Gabel's case was pending on reconsideration from the WCJ's January 4, 2019 decision, the parties reached a proposed settlement. Because the District Office is precluded from acting on a case pending on reconsideration under Cal. Code Regs., tit. 8, § 10961, the Board could not allow the WCJ to review the settlement without first rescinding the underlying decision. The Appeals Board rescinded the WCJ's decision and returned the matter to the trial level so the WCJ could consider the proposed settlement. The Board emphasized this was not a final decision on the merits of any pending issue, and that if the WCJ declines to approve the settlement, the WCJ may reinstate the original decision, after which any aggrieved party may again seek reconsideration.
