Hyper Technical Procedure Rejected

The NJ Appellate Division, while ruling against an injured worker in a claim where the worker exhibited "egregious conduct" in failing to keep numerous medical exams, in dicta, declared that hyper technical rules should not be enforced in workers' compensation. The Appellate forum declared that even though a notice of motion was "less than perfect," that alone should not be the basis for an adverse ruling.
