Question juridique clé
Whether the June 2001 back-impact incident was naturally and adequately causal for the lumbar complaints and disk herniation
Solution extraite
The alleged June 2001 incident did not justify continued accident insurance benefits; any lumbar aggravation was only temporary and had healed shortly after the event.
Motifs extraits
The accident circumstances were inconsistent and the medical evidence pointed to a pre-existing degenerative disk herniation that, at most, was temporarily exacerbated. The court found no basis for further factual inquiries.
