Reconsideration
If there is a "measurable" chance that your health will deteriorate as a result of the injuries the Court can reconsider the issue of damages on no more than two occasions. The court can now award periodical payments in cases where the life expectancy is uncertain.

Damages
General damages represents compensation that can be calculated accurately and is usually proved by documentary evidence including receipts or estimates for the specific items of loss. Special damages represents compensation that requires a degree of assessment. In making these assessments in accident compensation claims, judges will rely on evidence obtained from experts or specialists and in assessing damages for personal injury will rely on their own previous experience, on previously decided cases and on official guidelines published by the Judicial Studies Board.
