Gibson v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2014] NZACC 109
- Court
- District Court
The court was not satisfied on the balance of probabilities that the scaphoid fracture occurred after 1 April 1974; medical evidence was inconclusive and the rugby injury circa 1963 was the more probable cause. Because the injury likely predated the ACC scheme the appellant is not entitled to cover and the respondent's decision is upheld.
