What is the range of injuries a plaintiff sustained in a motor vehicle accident?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Jensen v. Felker, 2008 BCSC 541 (CanLII):
In summary, I find that the plaintiff suffered a mild cervical strain from the accident and more severe lower back strain. The former resolved within a couple of months and the latter continued for approximately 18 months. To the extent the plaintiff continues to experience pain, I am not satisfied on a balance of probabilities that it is causally related to the motor vehicle accident as that notion is explained in Athey v. Leonati, 1996 CanLII 183 (SCC), [1996] 3 S.C.R 458.
