Jago v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1995] NZACC 51
- Court
- District Court
The District Court held the Corporation acted within its regulatory discretion under r6 and r13 in assessing necessity and cost-effectiveness and in requiring claimant contribution; the application of the cushioning principle was not improper and the Review Officer's grant of $5,000 was a reasonable exercise of discretion and not unreasonable or against the weight of the evidence, therefore the appeal was dismissed.
