McDermott v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1995] NZACC 4
- Court
- District Court
Because no written election was made by the appellant by 31 March 1993 and no written application was shown to have been made before 1 April 1993, section 147(3) of the 1992 Act deems the appellant to have elected to receive an independence allowance and thereby extinguishes any entitlement to lump sum compensation under the 1982 Act; the appeal is dismissed.
