any decision of the administrative law judge ending, diminishing, or increasing any weekly payment under the provisions of KRS 342.125 upon a present ation to it of a certified copy of such decision. Effective: July 14, 2000 History: Amended 2000 Ky. Acts ch. 514, sec. 20, effective July 14, 2000. -- Amended 1996 (1st Extra. Sess.) Ky. Acts ch. 1, sec. 61, effective December 12, 1996. -- Amended 1987 (1 st Extra. Sess.) Ky. Acts ch. 1, sec. 38, effective January 4, 1988. -- Amended 1972 Ky. Acts ch. 78, sec. 28. -- Recodified 1942 Ky. Acts ch. 208, sec. 1, effective October 1, 1942, from Ky. Stat. sec. 4939. Legislative Research Commission Note (4/22/94). The phrase 'unappealed from, or of an award' has been restored to the first sentence of this statute to reflect the text of this statute as enacted by 1916 Ky. Acts ch. 33, sec. 56 (codified at K.S. 4939) and reenacted as KRS 342.305 by 1942 Ky. Acts ch. 208, sec. 1. In the amendment of KRS 342.305 made by 1972 Ky. Acts ch. 78, sec. 28, this language was erroneously printed as 'on appeal from, or an award' although no legislative change in this text was made by bracketed deletion and italicized insertion.

2 Ky. Acts ch. 78, sec. 28, this language was erroneously printed as 'on appeal from, or an award' although no legislative change in this text was made by bracketed deletion and italicized insertion. This erroneous text was then brought into the Kentucky Revised Statutes through codification and retained in the 1987 amendment of the statute. Pursuant to KRS 7.136(1)(h), this manifest clerical or typographical error has been corrected. See also KRS 446 .270 and 446.280.
