Re: Filing A CT Claim, in pro per and no longer with past employer??
labor code 5410 prevents adding body parts more than five years from the date of injury. Therefore, if you have not filed a petition to reopen, you are barred from adding new body parts. If there was no CT present when you filed your 2002 claim, it is too late to file a claim now unless there have been subsequent employers. You need a physician to find a CT befor you can make such a claim.
