Why is the defendant not paying your temporary disability? Is your case denied or accepted? Who found you permanent and stationary? Was this the employer's doctor, or your doctor? It is difficult to address your question without knowing more details.

Your EDD benefits should be covered by your settlement agreement with your employer's worker's compensation carrier. If you receive benefits after the P & S date insurance company may want credit for over payment. P & S date can be disputed. Feel free to call me at 213-388-7070 for a free consultation.
