CB v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2003] NZACC 327
- Court
- District Court
The Court concluded the subsequent psychiatric evidence (Dr Davis) cogently suggested the original medical assessment may have undervalued psychiatric consequences of the injury and therefore warranted reopening the s.98 medical assessment process so that Dr Davis’ views are considered by a duly qualified assessor; no final determination was made pending that further assessment.
