Use this motion form if a claimant or a beneficiary is a minor. Pursuant to law, a Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) must be appointed for such persons. Additionally, the law requires that the GAL must be an attorney licensed in the State of Arizona. You will need to provide the attorney’s bar license number in the motion form. If you do not have an attorney to request for appointment as GAL, an Administrative Law Judge will appoint one at no cost to the parties.

This form may be used by an injured worker to request the Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) Division review the claim and conduct an investigation regarding any benefit the injured worker is entitled to that has been denied. Examples include denied medical or disability benefits. If, after review and investigation, the ALJ Division determines that a hearing is required, the matter will be assigned to a hearing judge and a hearing will be scheduled. 

If you are protesting a notice, award, order, or are seeking penalty benefits pursuant to A.R.S. § 23-1061(M), do not use this form.  Use the Request for Hearing Form instead: - Request For Hearing Form -
