The insurer sought leave to appeal and a stay of an arbitrator's preliminary order requiring it to fund a catastrophic impairment assessment.
The Director's Delegate rejected the appeal at this time, finding it more efficient to wait until the main arbitration concluded to avoid a multiplicity of appeals.
The request for a stay of the arbitrator's order was also denied, as the insurer was in a better position to bear the risk of non-recovery than the insured person.
