Smith v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2014] NZACC 215
- Court
- District Court
The 26 May 2009 letter constituted a decision by the Corporation rejecting the March 2009 neck injury claim as not a new injury (a coverage decision); omission of review rights did not render the letter non‑decisional nor give rise to a deemed decision under s58; no evidence was advanced on the merits to overturn the decision, so the decision is confirmed and the appeal dismissed.
