Arbitration application for accident benefits dismissed due to applicant's failure to attend hearings and substantiate claims.
The applicant applied for statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
After failing to resolve the dispute at mediation, the applicant applied for arbitration but subsequently failed to attend two pre-hearing discussions and the arbitration hearing itself.
The insurer brought a motion to dismiss the application.
The arbitrator granted the motion, finding that the applicant failed to participate in the process or produce evidence to substantiate his claims.
The arbitration was dismissed, and the applicant was ordered to pay the insurer's expenses fixed at $500.
