Summary

Applicant's attorney sought reconsideration of a March 17, 2026 Order imposing $500 sanctions each on the applicant's attorney's law firm and the defendant insurer for failure to appear at a February 9, 2026 status conference. Applicant's attorney contended that he initially logged onto CourtCall but was disconnected, did not receive the NIT, and was denied a meaningful opportunity to be heard. The WCAB granted reconsideration, finding the sanctions order was issued without an evidentiary record and in violation of due process. The Board emphasized that the WCJ's recitations on the Minutes and NIT merely memorialize the judge's own observations and are not evidence absent a hearing or stipulation. The Board rescinded the Order and returned the matter to the WCJ for further proceedings, including creation of an evidentiary record on appearance, reasonable excuse, and proper service.
