SHAUNTEL WILLIAMS VERSUS KENTER, LLC, ET AL.
FILED: 10/21/22 On application of Kenter, LLC, for Supervisory Writ in No. 18-08106 on the docket of the Office of Workers' Compensation – District #3, Parish of Calcasieu, Honorable Jonathan Brown.
Counsel for: Eric J. Waltner Kenter, LLC Counsel for: Shauntel Williams Shauntel Williams
Lake Charles, Louisiana, on March 14, 2023.
WRIT GRANTED AND MADE PEREMPTORY. We find that the office of workers' compensation court legally erred in its interpretation and application of La. Admin. Code Title 40, Pt. I, § 5705. The 30-day period for seeking reinstatement under La. Admin. Code Title 40, Pt. I, § 5705(C) begins to run the day after the clerk has mailed the notice of the signing of the dismissal judgment.
Accordingly, we reverse and set aside the court's ruling.
