  • Case name:
    Ventura Coastal LLC v. Occupational Safety and Health Appeals Board (Department of Industrial Relations)
    Date:
    12/01/2020
    Note:
    A California appellate court ruled that an employer cited for a safety violation did not timely seek review of an administrative decision, but it is entitled to assert a claim of equitable tolling.
    Citation:
    No. F077267
    WCC citation:
    No. F077267
  • Case name:
    Ventura v. ABM Industries Inc.
    Date:
    12/20/2012

    Citation:
    B231817
    WCC citation:
    WCC 39652012 CA
  • Case name:
    Vera v. WCAB
    Date:
    08/30/2007
    Note:
    The WCAB properly denied the petition for reconsideration because the schedule for rating permanent disabilities that went into effect on January 1, 2005, applies to the instant case.
    Citation:
    72 CCC 1115
    WCC citation:
    WCC 32482007 CA
  • Case name:
    Verga v. WCAB
    Date:
    01/23/2008
    Note:
    In light of the legislative intent in enacting section 3208.3, subdivision (b)(1), the disdainful reactions of co-workers to the claimant's abusive conduct were neither actual events of employment nor the predominant cause of her psychological injuries within the meaning of the statute.
    Citation:
    C055711
    WCC citation:
    WCC 33042008 CA
  • Case name:
    Victor Valley Transit Authority v. WCAB
    Date:
    09/26/2000

    No WCAB jurisdiction over 'contribution' issues in joint venture; not appropriate for arbitration.
    Citation:
    83 Cal.App.4th 1068
    WCC citation:
    WCC 25402000 CA
  • Case name:
    Vierra v. WCAB
    Date:
    08/31/2007
    Note:
    Because the WCAB unquestionably has the ultimate authority over attorney compensation (see Reich, supra, 99 Cal.App.3d at p. 234), the WCJ's order that a fee agreement is not binding is free from error.
    Citation:
    154 Cal. App. 4th 1142; 65 Cal. Rptr. 3d 423
    WCC citation:
    WCC 32502007 CA
  • Case name:
    Vilkitis v. WCAB
    Date:
    06/18/2009
    Note:
    [Unpublished] Current sections 4663 and 4664 require physicians to consider each industrial injury sustained, and apportion the injured worker's disability for cause.
    Citation:
    B209235
    WCC citation:
    WCC 35342009 CA

    WCC 29852004 CA
  • Case name:
    Virginia Surety Co. v. WCAB (Echelard)
    Date:
    08/22/2008
    Note:
    Under the WCAB's reasoning and Dr. Thomas's medical reporting, we agree the record supports an indication of permanent disability permitting the use of the 1997 PDRS. Accordingly, we will not disturb the WCAB's decision.

    F055253
    WCC citation:
