High Court dismisses a personal injury claim as statute barred, determining that the plaintiff was aware of the significant injury and its potential attribution to the defendant's alleged negligence within the statutory time limit; the plaintiff's reliance on later expert reports did not extend the period for initiating proceedings, as the essential knowledge of the injury's significance and its connection to the defendant's actions was established prior to the expiration of the statutory limit; and the proceedings were not filed within the required timeframe and were therefore statute barred.
