Summary

Applicant Selsa Hernandez sustained a left shoulder injury on December 24, 2009 while pushing a sofa, and filed an Application for Adjudication in 2014. The case-in-chief resolved via a Compromise & Release among four defendants, with defendants reserving contribution/reimbursement rights. Lien claimant Everest National/Sedgwick (carrier for a related cumulative trauma injury, ADJ8838679) sought reimbursement of $27,434.58 from Hartford Insurance for overlapping body parts. The WCJ found Sedgwick entitled to reimbursement, rejected Hartford's arguments regarding exhibit admissibility and the one-year statute of limitations (finding it tolled for failure to provide proper Reynolds notice and that the McDaniel five-year period applied), and the WCAB denied Hartford's Petition for Reconsideration, adopting and incorporating the WCJ's report and opinion.
