Fees and Costs

On appeals from the board or the administrative law judge, or upon the reservation of a workers’ compensation case by the Compensation Review Board, no entry fee shall be paid, and no costs shall be taxed in favor of either party provided that if an appeal is found by the court either to be frivolous or to be filed for the purpose of vexation or delay, the court may tax costs in its discretion against the person so taking the appeal. (P.B. 1978-1997, Sec. 4165.4.) (Amended Sept. 16, 2015, to take effect Jan. 1, 2016.)
