Lay v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- Lay v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Court
- District Court
Because the appellant is bound by the Reviewer’s finding that his refusal to sign the consent form was unreasonable (issue estoppel) and ACC v Peck establishes there is no entitlement to backdated weekly compensation during periods of non-compliance, the Corporation’s decision to deny backpayment for 29 August 2003–4 October 2004 was lawful and must be upheld; no exceptional circumstances existed to require payment under s117(3B).
