Jamieson v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2015] NZACC 97
- Court
- District Court
For the 11 November 2010 decision the appeal is dismissed because the appellant knowingly delayed, understood time limits, and his explanation (expectation of refusal and later injury) lacked reasonable substance under s135(3). For the 8 April 2011 decision the appeal is allowed because the appellant reasonably arranged for an agent to file the review and the agent's admitted absence and limited communications amounted to the agent unreasonably failing to ensure timely filing, satisfying s135(3)(b).
