L.H. v. Certas Direct Insurance Company (18-005475)

The claimant filed a request for reconsideration arising from a decision in which the Tribunal found that her injuries fell within the MIG. Adjudicator Lake dismissed the request for reconsideration on the grounds that the request was not submitted within 21 days of the date of the decision pursuant to Rule 18.1, as the claimant provided no explanation for her late filing. Adjudicator Lake noted that even if she were incorrect in finding that the claimant’s request for reconsideration was time-barred, she would alternatively dismiss the reconsideration request on its merits, as the Tribunal did not make an error such that it would likely have reached a different conclusion had the error not been made.
