Baker v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2011] NZACC 291
- Court
- District Court
The Court preferred the opinions of Dr Bohm and Dr Turner that the claimant's current incapacity is attributable to pre‑existing multilevel cervical spondylosis and not to a compensable injury from the February 2008 (or 2006) events; therefore ACC had a sufficient basis to suspend weekly compensation on 7 October 2008 and the appeal is dismissed.
