(740 ILCS 45/16) (from Ch. 70, par. 86)
Sec. 16.
The Court of Claims, on its own motion or upon the written request
of any applicant, may modify an award of compensation made under this Act
or reconsider a denial of compensation. No hearing need be held, however,
unless the written request states facts which were not known to the applicant or by the
exercise of reasonable diligence could not have been ascertained by him or her
at the time of the entry of the order or determination sought to be modified and which would
have directly affected whether or not compensation
should be awarded and, if so, the amount of that compensation.
