The applicant sought reconsideration of a Licence Appeal Tribunal decision that found her subject to the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) and denied several disputed medical benefits.
The applicant argued the Tribunal erred in its application of s. 38 of the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule, violated procedural fairness by admitting expert reports without cross-examination, and incorrectly assessed her physical and psychological impairments.
The adjudicator dismissed the request for reconsideration in full, finding no significant errors of law or fact, and concluding that the admission of the expert reports was an appropriate exercise of the Tribunal's procedural powers.
The adjudicator also affirmed that the applicant's injuries, including TMJ dysfunction and psychological distress, were properly classified as minor injuries or clinically associated sequelae.
