Poad v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2015] NZACC 290
- Court
- District Court
The appellant was not in paid employment on the date of injury (14 February 1990) so the s103 incapacity test is not met; the transitional weekly compensation provisions do not apply because the appellant was not continuously entitled to weekly compensation since 1992; therefore entitlement from 28 June 2011 is to be determined under Part 4 and Schedule 1 of the 2001 Act and the Corporation correctly assessed weekly compensation under s105 as a potential earner.
