Appeal dismissed; LAT adjudicator's refusal to convert videoconference hearing to written format was procedurally fair.
The appellant appealed a Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT) decision denying her request to convert a scheduled videoconference hearing into a written hearing due to her psychological condition.
When the appellant's counsel declined to proceed without instructions, the adjudicator dismissed the application for statutory accident benefits.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding no evidence of bias, denial of natural justice, or procedural unfairness in the adjudicator's handling of the hearing or her subsequent written and reconsideration decisions.
