Application for catastrophic impairment dismissed; no objective evidence infant sustained head injury in minor collision.
The applicant, who was 12 days old at the time of a minor motor vehicle accident, sought a determination that he sustained a catastrophic impairment.
The applicant's mother claimed he suffered a concussion resulting in developmental delays.
The adjudicator found no objective medical evidence of a head injury from the accident, noting that treating physicians and assessors concluded the applicant's developmental issues were not accident-related.
The mother's testimony was deemed unreliable as it contradicted the medical records.
The application was dismissed.
