TRAYNOR, J.
I dissent. The decision of the commission on August 6, 1942, which in effect reaffirmed its decision of May 23, 1941, was on the rehearing granted petitioners on June 5, 1942. Section 5950 of the Labor Code provides, “Within thirty days after the petition for a rehearing is denied, or, if the petition is granted, within thirty days after the rendition of the decision on the rehearing, any person affected thereby may apply to the supreme court or to the district court of appeal of the appellate district in which he resides, for a writ of review, for the purpose of inquiring into and determining the lawfulness of the original order, decision or award, or of the order, decision, or award on rehearing.” (Italics added.) Under this provision the final decision of the commission was made on August 6, 1942. (Ingram v. Dept. of Industrial Relations, 208 Cal. 633, 636 [284 P. 212]; Harlan v. Industrial Acc. Com., 194 Cal. 352, 365 [228 P. *614654]; Crowe Glass Co. v. Industrial Acc. Com., 84 Cal.App. 287, 293 [258 P. 130] ; Beronio v. Industrial Acc. Com., 86 Cal.App. 588, 590 [260 P. 1104]; Mustain v. Industrial Acc. Com., 130 Cal.App. 447, 448 [19 P.2d 1031].) The petition for writ of review was not filed within thirty days thereafter and for that reason should not be considered. (Neal v. Industrial Acc. Com., 36 Cal.App. 40 [171 P. 696]; North Pacific Steamship Co. v. Industrial Acc. Com., 34 Cal.App. 488 [168 P. 30].) Since the decision on rehearing made no change in the award there was no basis for further reconsideration by the commission. (Cf. Dalsheim v. Industrial Acc. Com., 215 Cal. 107 [8 P.2d 840]; Brunau v. Industrial Acc. Com., 135 Cal.App. 277 [26 P.2d 672].)
Edmonds, J., concurred.
Respondent’s petition for a rehearing was denied September 1, 1943. Edmonds, J., and Traynor, J., voted for a rehearing.
