SECTION 1. BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF
MARYLAND, That the Laws of Maryland read as follows:
Article 101 - Workmen's Compensation
52.
At any time after a claim for compensation under this
article has been filed with the Workmen's Compensation Commission
by any claimant, the said claimant and/or his or her dependents
may, with the approval of the Commission, enter into an agreement
with the employer or insurer of such employer, [or] with the
Subsequent Injury Fund, OR WITH THE UNINSURED EMPLOYERS' FUND
providing for a final compromise and settlement of any and all
claims which the said employee or his or her dependents might
then or thereafter have under the provisions of this article,
upon such terms and conditions as the Commission shall, in its
discretion, deem proper. Any such settlement when approved by
the Commission shall be binding upon all parties thereto, and no
such settlement shall be effective unless approved by the
Commission. Any final compromise and settlement of a claim
between the claimant or his or her dependents and the employer
and insurer shall also preclude the right of the claimant or his
dependents to proceed against the Subsequent Injury Fund on the
claim, unless the Commission specifically orders otherwise. Upon
death, any balance payable under such final compromise and
settlement shall be an asset in the hands of the personal
representative of the deceased party to such final compromise and
settlement.
90.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this article,
when a claim for compensation is filed by an employee, or in case
of death, by his dependents, and the employer has failed (1) to
secure the payment of compensation in accordance with § 16 of
this article, (2) to make deposit of security in accordance with
§ 16 of this article and (3) to make payment of compensation
