Solution extraite
The natural causal link was accepted, but the adequate causal link was denied under HWS-trauma case law.
Motifs extraits
The experts did not show that the psychiatric symptoms were an independent disorder; therefore the special HWS jurisprudence applied. For a medium-borderline accident, only some criteria were met and not in a particularly striking or cumulative way.
