Application for accident benefits dismissed; injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline and IRB denied.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied various benefits, asserting the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The Tribunal found the applicant failed to prove his physical or psychological injuries warranted removal from the MIG.
The Tribunal also dismissed the claim for income replacement benefits, finding the applicant did not suffer a substantial inability to perform the essential tasks of his self-employment in construction.
As the MIG limit was exhausted, the disputed chiropractic treatment plans were denied.
Claims for interest and an award for unreasonable delay were also dismissed.
