The appellant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and received weekly income benefits for approximately two years before the insurer terminated them.
The arbitrator found that the appellant was not eligible for further benefits, concluding that his failure to resume employment was due to an unreasonable refusal to work rather than a genuine psychological disability.
On appeal, the appellant argued the arbitrator failed to give due weight to his psychiatrist's report and was biased.
The Director's Delegate dismissed the appeal, finding that the arbitrator's assessment of the evidence was reasonable and supported by the record.
The Delegate also refused to admit new medical evidence on appeal and upheld the arbitrator's decision to award the appellant only one-third of his arbitration expenses.
