Cook v Accident Compensation Corporation

- [2015] NZACC 316
- Court
- District Court
The application for leave to appeal is dismissed because the appellant's core legal propositions fail as a matter of statutory interpretation: accepted cover is a prerequisite to entitlement and s317(7) does not confer cover; the amended s38 cannot be applied to the claim by virtue of s34(2) (and on the facts the amended provision would not help), so no question of law capable of serious and bona fide argument is established.
