If the employee is not convicted of the alleged violation, the insurer shall pay the employee the balance of the award in a lump sum. The provisions of subsection 2 do not apply to require any additional payment at the conclusion of a criminal action.

4. This section does not preclude an insurer from making an investigation pursuant to, or pursuing the remedies provided by, NRS 616D.300 .
