Case Details

Preliminary issue trial found that a claimant's below knee amputation was not attributable to an initial accident at work, despite a severe crush injury.

Additional Notes

HHJ Walsh found the amputation was caused by the claimant's own conduct, which amounted to a supervening event, rather than the accident. The claimant was deemed an unreliable witness, and objective evidence contradicted his subjective claims of unbearable pain.
