Approved March 8, 1958

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

L. That § 65-96 of the Code of Virginia be amended and reenacted as
ollows:

§ 65-96. Any party in interest may file in the circuit or corporation
court of the county or city in which the injury occurred. or if it be in
the city of Richmond then in the circuit or law and equity court of such
city, a certified copy of a memorandum of agreement approved by the
Commission, or of an order or decision of the Commission, or of an award
of the Commission unappealed from, or of an award of the Commission
affirmed upon appeal, whereupon the court shall render judgment in
accordance therewith and notify the parties. Such judgment shall have
the same effect, and all proceedings in relation thereto shall thereafter be
the same, as though such judgment had been rendered in a suit duly heard
and determined by the court. The fines imposed and decisions rendered
under §§ 65-102, 65-108, and 65-118, shall be enforceable as provided here-
in for the enforcement of other decisions, orders or awards of the Com-
mission.
