Facts: Sanders sought judicial review of a WCAT decision denying wage-loss benefits post-October 15, 2019, for a concussion sustained on May 10, 2019. WCAT upheld a Review Division's decision granting benefits only until October 15, 2019.
Issues/Main Discussion: Sanders challenged the procedural fairness and reasonableness of WCAT's decision, particularly the denial of an oral hearing and findings on her credibility.
Ruling: The petition was dismissed. The court found no lack of procedural fairness or patently unreasonable decision-making by WCAT.
