The appendix must be signed by the parties and approved by the Court as set forth herein. C. In the absence of fraud, a Compromise Settlement shall be deemed binding upon the parties thereto and a final adjudication of all rights pursuant to the Workers' Compensation Code. An official record shall be made by a court reporter of the testimony taken to effect the Compromise Settlement. D. A good-faith effort shall be made on the part of any insurance carrier or group self-insured plan to notify an insured employer of the possibility of and terms of any settlement of a workers' compensation case pursuant to this section. Written comments or objections to settlements shall be filed with the Court and periodically shared with the management of the applicable insurer. A written notice shall be made to all policyholders of their right to a good-faith effort by their insurer to notify them of any proposed settlement, if the policyholder so chooses.
