On February 22, 1999, the petitioner, Mr. Salomon Mardones, was injured in a workplace accident. He had claimed that his lower back was still injured, but the Workers' Compensation Appeal Tribunal (WCAT), respondent, disagreed. This judicial review had focused on the reasonableness of WCAT's decision. The main issue had been whether WCAT's reconsideration decision was patently unreasonable. The petitioner had failed to provide "new" evidence, the Frame Report, to WCAT in a timely manner. The Court had concluded that the decision had not been patently unreasonable and had dismissed the petitioner's application
