Court of Appeals of Maryland

1Opinion of the CourtAdkins, J.
In each of these three cases we are tasked with determining the appropriate method for crediting payments made under a workers’ compensation award when that award is increased on appeal. The question is whether the credits are computed on the basis of the number of weeks paid or the amount of money expended. The answer can make a substantial difference in the bottom line paid and received. In resolving the issue in favor of the claimants in each of these cases, we rely on legislation passed specifically to supersede earlier decisions of this Court.
