O'Brien v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2000] NZACC 195
- Court
- District Court
The appeal was dismissed because the assessor certified an AMA Guides compliant assessment showing whole person impairment below the 10% threshold and the appellant produced no supporting medical evidence (for example thoracic x‑rays) to rebut that assessment; absent such evidence the court will not overturn the assessor's certified conclusion.
