Georgia Marquez — ADJ13696194, ADJ10888539, ADJ8761845, ADJ9927442

Applicant Georgia Marquez, a housekeeper for the County of Ventura, sustained four separate industrial injuries (2010-2020) affecting her back, shoulders, neck, and carpal tunnels. The WCJ issued four separate Findings and Awards on May 13, 2021, and defendant petitioned for reconsideration arguing the issues of credit for overpayment of permanent disability indemnity (in ADJ8761845) and temporary disability (in ADJ10888539) were not fully and properly decided. The WCJ acknowledged that the full impact of the credit claims was not readily apparent and the evidence not fully weighed at trial. The Board granted reconsideration and amended all four Findings and Awards to defer the issues of credit for overpayment, attorney fees, and the award of permanent disability. Notably, the Board corrected the WCJ's recommendation that reconsideration apply only to two cases, holding that because all four cases were consolidated by an order during the March 26, 2021 trial, the credit issue may be litigated in all four cases.
