California Court of Appeal
Brooks v. Workers' Comp. Appeals Bd., F053350
In a case considering whether a year of industrial disability leave (IDL) payable to state employees under Government Code 19869-19877.1 falls within the ambit of the two-year limitation of aggregation of temporary disability payments in Labor Code section 4656 subdivision (c)(1), the court of appeals rules that, under the current statutory scheme, state employees are limited to a maximum of two years of combined temporary disability indemnity.
