P.I. v. Aviva Insurance Company (16-001320)

The claimant sought entitlement to further medical benefits and removal from the MIG. Adjudicator Sewrattan concluded that the claimant had not proven an ongoing psychological injury or physical injury that fell outside of the “minor injury” definition. There was also insufficient evidence submitted by the claimant to prove that injuries arising from an earlier motor vehicle accident would prevent maximal recovery under the $3,500 minor injury limits. Entitlement to the claimed medical benefits was denied.
