O v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2001] NZACC 32
- Court
- District Court
On the balance of probabilities the appellant failed to prove that she suffered physical injury in the alleged 3 June 1993 assault or that her migraines are causally linked to such an injury; objective medical evidence (x-rays, CT scan, neuropsychological and psychiatric reports) did not demonstrate organic injury; therefore ACC validly exercised its power under s73 to revoke earlier cover and the appeal is dismissed.
