Leave was granted because the plaintiff displayed psychiatric symptoms temporally proximate to the accident, the causation matrix is complex (pre-existing anorexia, organic brain injury and post-accident events) and treating records alone do not resolve diagnosis, causation, prognosis or future treatment costs; preliminary notes from psychiatrists are admissible to justify a forensic joint psychiatric examination, but a solo forensic opinion obtained without leave (the opinion portion of the Kwan 2nd Report) was redacted and not admitted for the interlocutory determination.
