Eagles v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2016] NZACC 100
- Court
- District Court
On the balance of probabilities the court preferred the respondent's psychiatric evidence (Dr Garcia) and concluded the claimant's present incapacity is not caused by the 28 August 2008 incident; ACC was therefore entitled under s65(2) to revoke the prior deemed cover for mental injury and hypoxic brain injury and to suspend weekly compensation; the appeal is dismissed.
