Marjorie Burchfield — ADJ10988059

Applicant Marjorie Burchfield, an employee of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (legally uninsured, adjusted by State Compensation Insurance Fund), filed a Petition for Reconsideration challenging the WCJ's March 22, 2021 Findings and Order. The Appeals Board determined that the challenged order was an intermediate procedural order that did not determine any substantive right, liability, or threshold issue, and was therefore not a 'final' decision subject to reconsideration. The Board dismissed the petition to the extent it sought reconsideration and instead treated it as a petition for removal. Applying the standard for removal, the Board found that petitioner failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm, or that reconsideration would be an inadequate remedy. The Board dismissed the Petition for Reconsideration and denied the Petition for Removal.
