MK v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2016] NZACC 3
- Court
- District Court
The court concluded the assessor (Dr Fenwicke) had considered the claimant's full medical and injury history, applied apportionment for non-covered physical and social factors appropriately, and there was no clear and cogent expert evidence demonstrating a flaw in the WPI assessment; accordingly the review decision declining an independence allowance was correct and the appeal was dismissed.
