Application for accident benefits dismissed after applicant failed to attend the arbitration hearing.

The applicant applied for statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.

The matter proceeded to an arbitration hearing, but the applicant failed to attend or present any evidence.

The arbitrator found that the applicant had received notice of the hearing but failed to meet his burden of proof.

The application was dismissed in its entirety.

Ibrahim Atef Khasawneh v. Certas Direct Insurance Company, 2006 ONFSCDRS 36

OFSCDRSOntario Financial Services Commission - Dispute Resolution ServicesOct 4, 2005

Arbitrator lacks jurisdiction to compel an insured to attend an insurer's medical examination.

The insurer brought a motion seeking an order to compel the insured to attend psychiatric and vocational assessments.

The insured opposed the motion, arguing that the arbitrator lacked jurisdiction to grant such an order, that the insurer failed to provide proper notice under section 42(2) of the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule, and that the examinations were not reasonably necessary.

The arbitrator dismissed the motion, finding no jurisdiction to compel attendance at medical examinations.

The arbitrator also found that the notice provided by the insurer was void for failing to meet the statutory requirements and that the requested examinations were sought to bolster the insurer's case rather than to adjust the file.

Ajmer Nirwan v. Kingsway General Insurance Company, 2005 ONFSCDRS 141

OFSCDRSOntario Financial Services Commission - Dispute Resolution ServicesJul 21, 2005

Applicant had a reasonable excuse for late accident benefits application because insurer mailed forms to incorrect address.

The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and notified the insurer shortly after.

However, he did not submit a completed application for statutory accident benefits until nearly two years later.

The insurer argued the claim was invalid due to non-compliance with the time limits in section 22(1) of the Schedule.

The arbitrator found that the insurer had sent the application forms to an incorrect address, and the applicant never received them.

Applying a subjective/objective test, the arbitrator concluded the applicant had a reasonable excuse for the delay and allowed the arbitration to continue.

Dharam Paul v. Allstate Insurance Company of Canada, 2005 ONFSCDRS 102

OFSCDRSOntario Financial Services Commission - Dispute Resolution ServicesMay 20, 2005

Fall while approaching stationary bus without contact is not an accident under the Schedule.

The applicant sought statutory accident benefits after falling at a subway station while approaching a stationary bus.

She claimed she was pushed by another pedestrian and struck the bus as she fell.

The arbitrator found the applicant's evidence regarding striking the bus to be inconsistent and not credible, concluding she fell to the ground without contacting the bus.

Applying the direct causation test, the arbitrator held that the use or operation of the bus did not directly cause her injuries, as she had not yet commenced boarding.

The application was dismissed, and the applicant was ordered to pay $500 in expenses.

Cecilia M. Pangolino v. TTC Insurance Company Limited, 2005 ONFSCDRS 69

OFSCDRSOntario Financial Services Commission - Dispute Resolution ServicesApr 11, 2005

Falling debris striking a moving vehicle constitutes an accident for the purpose of statutory accident benefits.

The applicant was driving his car when concrete debris fell from a building and struck his vehicle, causing him to hit his head on the roof.

The insurer denied statutory accident benefits, arguing the incident was not an 'accident' under the Schedule because the falling debris was an intervening act.

The arbitrator held that the incident met the definition of an accident, finding that falling debris is a normal incident of the risk created by the use or operation of an automobile, similar to road hazards, and not an intervening act like an assault.

The preliminary issue was resolved in favour of the applicant.
