Key legal question
Whether the accident had adequate causal connection to the claimant’s psychic complaints and resulting entitlement to further SUVA benefits
Extracted holding
The accident was only an ordinary middle-range accident and none of the relevant criteria for adequate causation were met; the psychic complaints were therefore not compensable.
Extracted reasoning
The event was not near the boundary of a serious accident, lacked particularly dramatic circumstances, and did not show an unusual course of treatment or difficult healing in the legally relevant sense. Prior accidents or psychical preloading were not to be considered in the adequacy test.
