Evans v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2010] NZACC 175
- Court
- District Court
All credible medical opinion and contemporaneous hospital records supported reactive arthritis secondary to genitourinary infection as the probable cause of the knee incapacity; no medical opinion established accident as the substantial and effective cause; ACC complied with statutory decision obligations and its re-investigation was timely and reasonable, therefore the appeal must be dismissed.
