California Court of Appeal
Foster v. Workers' Comp. Appeals Bd., C056820
In a case considering the appropriate application of Labor Code section 4656(c)(1) to situations where multiple independent industrial injuries result in temporary disability, the court of appeals agrees with Workers' Compensation Appeals Board's conclusion that "where independent injuries result in concurrent periods of temporary disability, the 104[-]week/two[-]year limitation likewise runs concurrently".
