20 CFR 725.604 - Enforcement of final awards.

  • Section Number: 725.604
  • Section Name: Enforcement of final awards.

    Notwithstanding the provisions of Sec. 725.603, if an operator or 
other employer or its officers or agents fails to comply with an order 
awarding benefits that has become final, any beneficiary of such award 
or the district director may apply for the enforcement of the order to 
the Federal district court for the judicial district in which the 
injury occurred (or to the U.S. District Court for the District of 
Columbia if the injury occurred in the District). If the court 
determines that the order was made and served in accordance with law, 
and that such operator or other employer or its officers or agents have 
failed to comply therewith, the court shall enforce obedience to the 
order by writ of injunction or by other proper process, mandatory or 
otherwise, to enjoin upon such operator or other employer and its 
officers or agents compliance with the order.
