A prevailing party may make an application and motion to the Commission for an expedited judgment to confirm the award under Section 322 of this title, in which case the Workers' Compensation Commission shall summarily decide the motion. The Commission shall issue a judgment to confirm the award unless the Commission vacates, modifies, or corrects the award under Section 323 or 324 of this title.
