Petition for Removal from the order taking a trial off calendar for further development of the record issued on November 13, 2025, by the WCJ
What was disputed, and how it came out
Each issue the panel decided, with the reasoning it gave. An outcome is what this panel did on this record — not a rule, and not a prediction.
The WCJ's order taking the matter off calendar was not supported by a record or explanation, violating due process and causing irreparable harm, thus removal was proper.
From the decision · page 2tit. 8, 10955(a); see also Cortez, supra; Kleemann, supra.) Also, the petitioner must demonstrate that reconsideration will not be an adequate remedy if a final decision adverse to the petitioner ultimately issues. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 8, § 10955(a).) Here, the WCJ ordered the trial off calendar for further development of the record. The trial judge issued this order without creating a record or explaining the need for further development of the record and thus, the order violates the parties' right to due process, which constitutes irreparable harm. Thus, removal is proper in this case.
