Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the robbery had adequate causal link to the claimant's continuing psychiatric disorder under accident insurance law.
Decisione estratta
The robbery was a short, non-violent shock event that, even considering the claimant's pre-existing vulnerability, was not objectively apt to cause long-lasting psychiatric disability; the adequate causal link was denied.
Motivazione estratta
Under the ordinary course of events and general life experience, such a brief robbery without serious bodily harm or prolonged terror is typically overcome within weeks or months. The claimant's prior burden did not make the reaction objectively adequate.
