Morgan v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation

Citation

[1999] NZACC 148
Court

District Court

Because the respondent conceded the suspension was not statutory and reinstated payments, the appeal was withdrawn; the Court confined any costs award to appeal-related matters and, balancing conduct and limited work on the appeal, awarded the appellant $1,000 for appeal-related costs.

Reihana v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation

Citation

[1998] NZACC 73
Court

District Court

The Review Officer's adjournment was an interim decision and not a substantive determination on suspension of weekly compensation; therefore there was no final decision for this Court to hear and the appeal was premature. The matter is remitted to the Review Officer to determine the suspension in conjunction with (or subsequent to) the review of the decision refusing further university funding.
