The applicants claimed statutory accident benefits following an alleged motor vehicle accident.
They failed to comply with production orders, failed to attend medical examinations, and did not appear at the arbitration hearing.
Their counsel was granted leave to withdraw.
The arbitrator dismissed the claims for lack of evidence and found the arbitration to be an abuse of process, noting significant inconsistencies in the evidence regarding the alleged accident.
The insurer was awarded its expenses of the arbitration and a $3,000 assessment fee.
