SECTION 185:10-1-9. Advance (emergency) award of compensation  


Latest version.
  •   In the event a claimant requests advance claim consideration or requests an emergency award, the Administrator shall review said request and determine, based on the evidence of hardship so written and described, whether or not the claim shall be expedited and placed on the next Board docket. If the claim is expedited, the Board may review the claim for an emergency award, provided that elements of eligibility appear met, and out-of-pocket loss is verified. The decision of the Administrator as to whether or not a claim is expedited for Board review is not appealable. Notice requirements may be waived with written consent of the claimant.
