Nesbit v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2006] NZACC 130
- Court
- District Court
The court held ACC's information requests were relevant and reasonable to assessing the appellant's past and ongoing entitlement and that the appellant's invocation of the privilege against self-incrimination did not make his refusal reasonable for the purposes of s117(3)(a); consequently ACC was entitled to decline/suspend entitlements during the period of unreasonable non-compliance.
