Application for statutory accident benefits dismissed as the applicant failed to prove entitlement to claimed benefits.
The applicant was involved in a motor vehicle accident and sought various statutory accident benefits, including income replacement benefits (IRBs), attendant care services, and medical/rehabilitation benefits.
The respondent insurer denied the benefits.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to meet his burden of proving entitlement to any of the claimed benefits.
Specifically, the applicant did not provide compelling medical evidence to establish a substantial or complete inability to perform the essential tasks of his pre-accident employment.
The Tribunal also dismissed the claims for attendant care and treatment plans due to a lack of supporting evidence.
The respondent's request for costs was denied, as the applicant's conduct was not found to be unreasonable, frivolous, vexatious, or in bad faith.
The application was dismissed in its entirety.
Application for accident benefits dismissed; applicant failed to prove injuries warranted removal from Minor Injury Guideline.

The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to provide compelling medical evidence that her pre-existing conditions prevented maximal medical recovery, or that she suffered from chronic pain with functional impairment or a psychological condition warranting removal.
The application for disputed treatment plans and interest was dismissed.
