Claim for home modifications denied as applicant failed to prove current residence could not be modified.
The applicant, who sustained catastrophic injuries in a motor vehicle accident, sought $365,257.00 for home modifications to her daughter's house, arguing her current condominium could not be safely modified.
The respondent had approved $22,825.53 for modifications to her current unit.
The Tribunal dismissed the claim, finding the applicant failed to meet her burden of proving that her current residence could not be modified, as she provided no evidence that the condominium management company had formally denied the proposed modifications.
The Tribunal also dismissed the claim for the balance of a home modification assessment, capping it at the $2,000 statutory maximum, and denied claims for an award and interest.
