Gilmore v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2015] NZACC 27
- Court
- District Court
The District Court held that the contemporaneous medical records obtained after the original grant of cover contained material facts inconsistent with the appellant's account (no record of the accident or early neck treatment and preexisting headaches), and that this fresh evidence undermined the 2001 decision sufficiently under Bartels to conclude the original acceptance of cover was made in error; therefore ACC's revocation was correct.
