ROSE MARIE NUNO, Applicant
vs.
COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT
OF SOCIAL SERVICES, permissively self-insured, Defendants
Adjudication Number: ADJ10974991
Van Nuys District Office
OPINION AND DECISION
AFTER RECONSIDERATION
Applicant timely petitioned for reconsideration of the Partial Findings of Fact, Award and
Order issued by the workers’ compensation administrative law judge (WCJ) on August 26, 2024.
We granted reconsideration to study the factual and legal issues in this matter.
Following the parties’ participation in a commissioners’ settlement conference set at our
request, the parties settled this matter by filing an executed compromise and release and
stipulations with request for award on November 12, 2025.
In order to expedite review and approval of the compromise and release and stipulations,
we will rescind the Partial Findings of Fact, Award and Order, and remand this matter to the WCJ
to consider the compromise and release and stipulations. The WCJ may conduct such further
proceedings as they deem appropriate.
Our decision should not be construed as a ruling on the merits of the petition for
reconsideration. If the WCJ does not approve the compromise and release and/or stipulations, they
may issue an order reinstating their decision and any aggrieved party may timely seek
reconsideration from the reinstated decision.
We commend the parties for successfully resolving this matter without the need of further
litigation.

compensation administrative law judge for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
