Saeedi v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2007] NZACC 168
- Court
- District Court
On the available material the appellant failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that the 10% impairment was substantially and effectively caused by the covered 1995 injury rather than by pre-existing degenerative disease and prior surgery; therefore entitlement to an independence allowance was correctly declined.
