Following the dismissal of the applicant's claim for income replacement benefits, the insurer sought its expenses of the arbitration.
The arbitrator awarded the insurer its expenses, noting that the insurer was wholly successful and that the applicant had engaged in conduct that prolongated and obfuscated the proceeding, including failing to comply with production orders for his company's general ledger.
The insurer was awarded $15,073.22 in expenses and $2,816.88 in disbursements.
