Applicant v TD General Insurance Company (16-001308)

The claimant sought entitlement to IRBs, interest, and expenses. The Tribunal was also asked to determine whether the applicant was statute-barred from proceeding with his application. Adjudicator Gottfried held that the applicant was not statue-barred, as he brought his application within the 90-day time limit after receipt of a FSCO mediation report. Adjudicator Gottfried further determined that the applicant was not credible, and that he was not substantially unable to perform the essential tasks of his employment; therefore, he was not entitled to IRBs or interests. As neither party addressed the issue, Adjudicator Gottfried declined to make an order regarding expenses.
