1Opinion of the Court

AMY, Judge.

The workers' compensation claimant sought benefits from injuries he allegedly sustained in a work-related accident. After the parties entered into a settlement, the claimant sought to reopen his claim by filing an amended claim. The workers' compensation judge concluded that the claimant failed to prove that the settlement should be set aside or modified. Subsequently, the claimant filed a motion to amend judgment and motion for new trial, and the workers' compensation judge denied both motions. The claimant now appeals.
