Following a motor vehicle collision, a jury awarded the plaintiff $10,000 in general damages and $14,000 for past loss of income.
The defendant brought a threshold motion arguing the plaintiff's soft tissue injuries did not meet the verbal threshold under section 267.5(5) of the Insurance Act.
The court reviewed the medical evidence, including surveillance showing the plaintiff conducting fitness sessions, and concluded the plaintiff failed to prove she sustained a permanent impairment of a physical, mental, or psychological function.
The claim for general damages was dismissed.
