Application for non-earner and medical benefits dismissed; applicant failed to prove complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The applicant sought a non-earner benefit, a medical benefit for psychotherapy, an award, and interest following a motor vehicle accident.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the application, finding that the applicant's pre-existing conditions, including fibromyalgia, accounted for her ongoing complaints.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's medical assessments, which showed functional range of motion and no complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The claim for psychotherapy was also denied as the psychological assessment relied on self-reporting and contradicted pre-accident medical records.
