Campbell v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1995] NZACC 113
- Court
- District Court
The Court accepted the weight of medical opinion that the 1975 brucellosis lesion continues to contribute, though indirectly, to the appellant's incapacity; because s37 requires only that the personal injury be a contributing reason for inability to resume former employment, the Corporation erred by treating exhausted direct effects as dispositive and by failing to recognize the continuing contributory causal link; therefore the Corporation's decision to cease entitlement was revoked.
