Key legal question
Whether the 2004 toe complaints were shown with sufficient probability to be causally linked to the 1995 accident.
Extracted holding
No. The evidence did not establish a natural causal link with the required degree of probability.
Extracted reasoning
The opinions supporting causation relied mainly on the fact that symptoms followed the accident and on the insured's account of the trauma; this was insufficient. The opposing SUVA opinion was more convincing, especially given the limited work incapacity in 1995 and nine years of full work ability thereafter.
