Pincham v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2004] NZACC 254
- Court
- District Court
The judge accepted the uncontradicted specialist medical opinion that it was extremely unlikely the routine hearing test caused the tinnitus and, on the balance of probabilities, the appellant failed to prove a causal link between the 20 May 2003 test and his tinnitus; accordingly ACC's decision to decline cover was upheld.
