Dent v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1996] NZACC 55
- Court
- District Court
Because the respondent was in the process of obtaining further medical information and subsequently issued a decision declining the claim, there was no review determination in existence when the appellant lodged his appeal; accordingly the Court lacked jurisdiction to entertain the appeal and the file must be referred back to the respondent for a proper review hearing under the Act.
