Luger v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2008] NZACC 143
- Court
- District Court
On the evidence the appellant did not establish that her employment tasks had the particular property required by s30 that caused or materially contributed to her bilateral lateral epicondylitis or that the risk was significantly greater for persons performing her tasks than for the general population; medical opinion established degeneration aggravated but not caused by work, so cover under s30 fails and the ACC decision to decline is upheld.
