Highlight

A court cannot ignore the clear language of a statute under the guise of liberal construction.
A recalculation of average weekly wage under N.D.C.C. § 65-05-09(1) is authorized only if the employee is able to return to employment for twelve consecutive months or more before the recurrence of the disability that is the subject of the recalculation.
