Description

In this proceeding we are invited to annul an order of the respondent commission denying a petition to reopen the case. The petition was based on the ground that the award which had been made was wrong, working an injustice to the petitioner. The problem presented is whether a party, claiming to be aggrieved by an award, but who failed to apply for a rehearing within the statutory time limit, can obtain a judicial review of the award by the expedient of petitioning for a reopening of the case. We have reached the conclusion that the validity of the award may not be presented for review in this way.
