Questione giuridica chiave
Whether accident insurance benefits had to continue beyond 1 January 2007.
Decisione estratta
No. The causal effects of the accident had ended by 31 December 2006, so the insurer could discontinue benefits from that date.
Motivazione estratta
The medical file supported that the post-traumatic lumboischialgia on a degenerative spinal condition had stabilized; the status quo sine was reached about seven months after the accident, which was consistent with medical experience and the evidence.
