- Court
- District Court
The court accepted the treating orthopaedic surgeon's opinion that the appellant's current symptoms were not related to the 1978 covered injury; under s73(1) ACC was entitled to rely on that information and to cease entitlements, and ss37A/37B require a causal link to the injury for which cover was granted, so the cessation was upheld.
