Aguirre, Francisco

Francisco Aguirre's case involved a Petition for Removal challenging an interlocutory decision by the WCJ across three consolidated claims against California Drywall Co., insured by The Hartford. The petitioner sought removal, an extraordinary remedy granted only upon a showing of substantial prejudice or irreparable harm. The Appeals Board reviewed the petition along with the WCJ's report on the merits and concluded that the petitioner failed to demonstrate substantial prejudice or irreparable harm, and that reconsideration would be an adequate remedy if a final adverse decision later issued. The Board denied the Petition for Removal.
