Cunningham v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1996] NZACC 110
- Court
- District Court
The respondent's use of the available earnings records and averaging methodology under s53(2) was within its statutory discretion and the appellant's higher estimates were speculative or retrospective; the 11 July 1995 letter constituted the relevant information that triggered recalculation and arrears were paid within one month so s72 interest did not apply; accordingly the appeal is dismissed.
