John Jackson, Jr. vs. WCAB (Radnor School District and ACTS Retirement Community), 148 A.3d 939 (Pa. Comm. Ct. 2016)
In this case, we argued successfully for our client ACTS that the attempt by Radnor School District to join ACTS as an additional defendant failed because the joinder was filed untimely. This ruling will help speed litigation at the trial level as lawyers and workers’ compensation judges know that “late joinders” will now be looked upon with increasing disfavor by the Commonwealth Court.
