The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.

The respondent denied the benefits, arguing the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).

The applicant argued she should be removed from the MIG due to pre-existing right knee and psychological conditions, as well as accident-related psychological impairments.

The Tribunal found the applicant failed to prove her pre-existing conditions precluded recovery within the MIG or that she suffered an accident-related psychological impairment, noting a lack of corroborating clinical notes from her family doctor.

The application was dismissed.
