p0516 If an employer petitions for judicial review after its appeal of a workers' compensation award to the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board is unsuccessful, and the court affirms the Board's decision, the employee is entitled to attorney fees if review of the evidence shows that the award was supported by the competent opinion of a physician, but the employer contended that it is unsupported by substantial evidence.
