What is the test for ordering a further examination of a plaintiff's back?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Wocknitz v. Donaldson, 2010 BCSC 1991 (CanLII):
An example of a case where that test was met and where an order for a further examination was made is the decision of Mr. Justice Cole in Antoniali v. Massey, 2007 BCSC 1458. In that case, there had been a number of significant and unforeseen changes since the first examination. They included the plaintiff having tripped and fallen with renewed pain in her back, the plaintiff had become pregnant and had delivered a baby, and the plaintiff had undergone a CT scan which was normal in 2004, but underwent an MRI in April of 2005 showing a disk herniation.
