The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, disputing the insurer's determination that her injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).

The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to provide compelling medical evidence of a pre-existing condition, chronic pain, or psychological impairment that would warrant removal from the MIG.

Relying on the respondent's section 44 assessment, the Tribunal concluded the injuries were predominantly minor.

As the MIG limit was exhausted, the claims for chiropractic services, an award, and interest were dismissed.

The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.

The respondent denied the benefits, arguing the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).

The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to meet her burden to demonstrate that her injuries warranted removal from the MIG, noting her submissions were not tied to the medical evidence.

As the applicant was subject to the $3,500 MIG limit, the Tribunal dismissed the claim for a $12,912.72 multi-disciplinary assessment and denied interest.
