Summary

Defendant Garfield Beach CVS, LLC and its insurer filed a Petition for Removal challenging a WCJ's Order Rescinding Decision, Vacating Submission and Resetting for Trial. The Appeals Board agreed with the WCJ that the rescission of the original Findings and Order was a non-final order, meaning the defendant could not demonstrate the substantial prejudice or irreparable harm required for removal. However, the Board granted removal in part to rescind the trial-setting portion of the order, finding it prudent to set the matter for a status conference under WCAB Rule 10961 before returning it to the trial calendar. This would allow the parties to address issues relating to resubmission of the decision on the existing record. The defendant's arguments on the merits were deemed premature, as either party may file an appropriate petition once a new decision issues.
