Public Storage v. Galano
30 FLW D318
Trial court correctly found that employer/carrier failed to deny compensability of the claimant’s injury within 120 days after the initial provision of benefits and therefore was estopped in denying compensability. The only exception to the requirement that benefits must be denied within 120 days after the initial provision of benefits is if material facts relevant to the issue of compensability could not have been discovered through reasonable investigation. It is the burden of the employer/carrier to demonstrate the existence of this exception.
