The opinion of the court was delivered by This is an appeal under the Workmen's Compensation Act from an order of the district court refusing to set aside a settlement agreement, final receipt and release of liability. On August 27, 1974, appellant Bitnoff suffered an accidental injury within the terms of the Act. A settlement was effected and a Form D settlement agreement, final receipt and release of liability was executed by appellant and filed with the director November 5, 1974. Over sixteen months later, in March, 1976, appellant filed an application for compensation and a motion to set aside the prior agreement, receipt and release. The examiner found that under K.S.A. 44-527 the motion and application were filed out of time. The director reversed the examiner and directed the examiner to conduct a full hearing and take evidence. On appeal the district court reversed the director and reinstated the examiner's finding that the motion and application were filed out of time.
