Smith v Accident Compensation Corporation (Entitlement to Interest )
- Citation
- [2017] NZACC 28
- Court
- District Court
The appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction because the substantive issue of entitlement to interest on back-dated weekly compensation has been previously determined and is subject to issue estoppel; the ACC emails did not constitute a 'decision' under s6, s54 did not impose an obligation to create a reviewable decision in the circumstances, and s58 did not apply; therefore the reviewer correctly declined jurisdiction.
