in effect65-04-18. Subsequent injury or aggravation of previous injury or condition of
employee - Charge to employer's risk - Charge of part of claim to subsequent injury fund.
Whenever a subsequent injury or aggravation of a previous injury or pre-existing condition
occurs to an employee, the risk of the employer for whom such person was working at the time
of such subsequent injury or aggravation shall be charged only with the amount of the awards
resulting from such subsequent injury or aggravation. Whenever such subsequent injury or
aggravation results in further disability or an aggravation of a pre-existing injury or condition, the

entitled solely by reason of the subsequent injury or aggravation shall be charged to the
subsequent injury fund and not to the classification or the risk to which the subsequent injury or
aggravation is charged.
