6.10.700 Statute of limitations.
(A) Statute of Limitations. Except as otherwise provided herein, the right to benefits under this article shall be barred unless a claim is filed with the Administrator within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the compensable work injury.
(B) Tolling of Statute of Limitations. The statute of limitations is tolled under the following conditions:
(1) Incapacity of Employee. If a work injury incapacitates an employee, the statute of limitations will not begin to run until the incapacity ends. Notwithstanding the foregoing, another person on behalf of the employee may report a work injury to the injured employee’s supervisor, at which time the claim shall be initiated.
(2) Failure of Supervisor to Report. If a supervisor fails to promptly report a notice or report of work injury to the Gaming Enterprise, the statute of limitations shall be tolled until the supervisor actually reports the injury to the Gaming Enterprise. In such event, the employee or if applicable, a dependent thereof, must verify that the employee reported the work injury to his or her supervisor within the twenty-four (24) hour period required by KTC 6.10.690(B).
