OPALA, J.

¶ 1 Today's certiorari presses two questions for our decision: (1) Is a trial judge's initial award of benefits, made in accordance with the provisions of 85 O.S. Supp.1997 § 16(D),3 a final order that a worker is permanently totally disabled? and (2) Did the trial judge impermissibly terminate that order? We answer both questions in the negative.
