Simon Wheatley was instructed to act on behalf of the claimant on this personal injury case:
On 4 July 2013 Mr Murphy, a lorry driver, fell and injured himself at work. He brought a claim for damages caused by the injury to his right wrist and left shoulder. He said he still had pain and restriction as of the date of trial. The Defendant alleged he was fundamentally dishonest by pretending that his pain and symptoms had persisted beyond a period of six months. They relied on CCTV and Facebook entries. In addition, while they accepted primary liability for the accident, they alleged he had contributed to it by his own injury.
The judge made the following findings/orders:
