Injury / body parts: back, knees, legs, diabetes/internal

LC §5501.5CCR §10955

Summary

Applicant Balbir Singh, a 68-year-old security worker, claimed injuries to his back, knees, legs, and diabetes/internal arising from a specific injury on 7/10/2024 and a cumulative trauma period from 5/20/2020 to 7/14/2024. Defendant filed a Joint Petition to Change Venue under Labor Code section 5501.5, which the WCJ granted on 2/4/2025, moving the matter to the Lodi District Office. Applicant filed an unverified Petition for Removal challenging the venue change as untimely, but the WCJ failed to identify and act on the petition within the statutory timeframe under CCR section 10955. The WCAB granted the Petition for Removal, rescinded the 2/4/2025 order, and returned the matter to the trial level so the WCJ could properly address the Petition for Removal.
